Thanks for the nice compliments.
 
 
 
Sure, if I can hire you to do the drafting of the furniture, as I love your drawings. So just send your idea's and we'll make it a joint effort.
 
The upper half of the cupboard as two features, one shelf for pots and one to hold plates, I got the idea of some pictures I found of galleys.

Piet,
 
It just looks amazing.  Wonderfully amazing.  You've put heart and soul into this and it shows. 

After many days cementing these small slats to the deck I finally put the last ones on this morning and added dye where needed.  As far as I'm concerned it looks okay, not great but acceptable. Gwen, the Admiral, says it shows character.  
 
Now I have to make a decision what project I should tackle next.  Hatch hinges?  Torpedo loading gantries?  Mines?  Torpedoes?  Finishing the AA guns?
I guess it'll have to be the hinges.  This'll be slow going - - - I'll be taking my time with this.  Not an easy project  because it's all part of an afterthought.  As mentioned before, I did not plan to make certain things workable but alas, after seeing the model of the O21 I got this wild eyed idea to do something similar.
 
Okay, I took the model outside and shot a bunch of pictures in front of the garage door.  This time I put the boat on two bricks which made for better pics.  I may not post all of them here - - - just too many - - - I got carried away, again.  Well, I kinda like the model as she looks now     
Hope all yuns like them.

Gwen, the Admiral, took this pic to give all y'all an idea of the size of the model.  I'm 5 feet 8 inches tall.
 
Cheers.

Thanks to everyone following my build and also my physical condition(s) and your best wishes and prayers.  This Thursday I'll be seeing the doc again and find out what's going on.
 
Hello Doris, thank you for visiting and your kind words.  Yes, I'll be keeping up with my build, still a lot of work ahead.
 
Hey John, good to hear from you and I did have a Leffe dark this evening before dinner.  Thanks for thinking about me and your prayers.  I'm patiently waiting for your continuation with your Morgan.
 
Cheers,
 
 

Ah, but of course....have fun

Ship is looking good Wayne. I like your mounting board....nice move. Hope to see more.

Thanks Dave, we buy shrimp tomorrow....

Dave, we're called Q-Tips....white hair and white tennis shoes...

How'd you know...that's why we live on a lake....it has been wierd for weather, tomorrow I have to repair the sprinkler system...broken pipes....hardly ever happens. More freezes than the last 30 years or so....sorry for you guys up north...hope you get a break soon....

Thanks Mobbsie, with Augie's help I have now been in touch with Marc Mosko owner of Model Expo who has assured me that this will be resolved. The guy I was dealing with Tom Snow is no longer with the company. Looks like ME is getting back on track to where they used to be. Good for them. I'll keep everyone posted as to the results.

Well. I've heard of 'snow birds' for the northern winter folk in the south but I don't know what you call a southerner flying up north in the dog days of summer - I guess 'smart'.
 
...better let go here...hijack territory approaching.

Hey Dennis, good to hear from you. It's not resolved yet, but seems to be on the right track. Good to hear from you. Don't freeze it off....got out the shorts and T shirt yesterday, nice to sit on the veranda and watch the sunset yesterday....sorry to rub it in, but the south is hard to beat.....
