Hi ir3, Beautiful work. I too had trouble with bubble. I must have varnished and sanded 6 times before I was happy. That was on my Krick Victoria. I’m actually building the Chiba Star I purchased from you on eBay maybe 5 years ago. I’m also scratch building the Eppleton Hall with Saito power. The MH&B kits are second to none. I was lucky enough to purchase a completed Topaz with Anton engine from a gentleman in England. He built it and never floated it. I have been running her every weekend on Spreckle’s Lake. We are having our Annual Steam Up , October 24, 2021. If you’re so inclined to visit San Francisco and join us it’s a good day. My email is gogiantks@aol.com.
