Gerhardvienna got a reaction from popeye the sailor in USS CAIRO by Gerhardvienna - RADIO - live steam July 11, 2018

Hi Johnhoward

SLOWLY I`ll find back to my former shape, at the moment I`m checking out how far i had built my projects, and then I can start again. All the models are in good condition, so the restart will not be too far away from now

Regards
Gerhard

Hi Friends

Thank you so much!
I`ll be back in hopefully short time, and then continue with my builds. At the time I`ve just too much other things to handle, and received my 3D-Printer this past week, so I have something to do, and not to think too much about all that mess.....................

Regards
Gerhard

Hi Carl

Sorry for missing attention, there were a lot of hard times for me and my admiral Sabina. Admirals dad died from cancer in his bladder, admiral herself has suffered pneumonia and is still not at 100% fit, so there is some more time to spend forher recreaction. Model making has to have a break till everything is back to normality.....................
BUT: The CAIRO and all the other projects are not cancelled, just waiting!
Best regards
Gerhard

Last thing done on the carriage, elevator screw is set into place. And I could grind the bottom of the hull to shape, just raw at the time, but enough to set the bow and stern blocks to the frames, and then grind all to final shape.

Thank you all for your interest

Hi johnhoward

So they were meant as ventilation funnels, i got it now! The position of them should be good to see in the Bob Hill plans, but there is a difference for the ventilation grate. In his side view frames plan the grate seems to be roof shaped, as I made it, in his plansheet "Frame 72 with interior" he shows the same part flat as you made it. I can still make that change, would be no problem, but I must be sure to make the correct decision!

Regards
Gerhard

Hi Johnhoward

Great progress with your St. Louis! While I`m struggling with some smaller issues at home (need a new water boiler for my bathroom....), I have to make a little break with the Cairo

Attached are a few recent photographs of Bill's latest handiwork on our USS St. Louis Ironclad, [l to R: wheel for a coal wheelbarrow next to the previous wheels for the 12-pdr Boat Howitzer carriage, shovels & other tools in the fireroom, and the finished aft end of the boilers] Our modeling effort has been in a slight recess during August for vacations but should pick up again next month.

Hello again everyone..
It took a long time but we finally received the display case from our manufacturer and our Bounty is happily on display in our living room. She proudly sits on the other side of the narrows from HMS Victory vying for the most attention. This will close out our joint effort in the building oh the HMS Bounty.
Best to everyone..
Charlene and Jerry
