  1. a beautiful model Mark, very nice work to date.... and BTW, a happy birthday to you Nils
  2. Many thanks Keith and Glenn, and all the "likes"... Keith, doing the light lids in brass is quite time consuming, but decision was made, so push it through... Glenn, thanks for the greetings, and for looking in regulary, I`m pleased you like it.. Nils
  3. Thank your greeting and your nice compliment Martin, I`m very pleased if you look in regulary and you lke it.... the shipyard workers are looking for a place where they wo`nt be disturbed when having their lunch..... Nils
  4. Jack, thanks for sharing the overview of these boatstypes .... Nils
  5. Your fitting out of the decks looks superb Bob, Nils
  6. update... been building the two bases for the machine-room skylights, above the engine room shaft, that bear each six ventilation skylight housings with again each 6 panel flaps. So that will be in total 36 opening flaps with each 4 round light openings ( 36 flaps x 4 = 144 "portholes") This surely will take some time from now on. The flaps will be made from 8 mm wide brass strip, and the "portholes" like I usualy do it... Nils sample of this detail borrowed of a card build model from the web..... trying for the right hole pattern (4 holes) per panel. The upper 4 ones look OK. The hole-frames are made from shortend hollow rivets and soldered on to the panel The green tape is for preventing the bottom ventshaft rings to slip off and get lost
  7. Thanks Ed, for your feedback and input, love those little episodes, wish I had some more historic pictures (old photographs or so...) Nils
  8. Hi Rpeteru, thanks for looking in again and hope you liked the progress inbetween. Also thanks for your nice compliment, you`re very welcome.... Nils
  9. Thank you Druxey, the fact that there are 7 sizes of vents and individual numbers that provide a little variation in the mass production...., but still in total 87 vents Nils
