She's coming along very nicely. John -
Good to see that you've been able to get the deck completed, Stuart. John

Don't rule out a scratch build entirely. It's amazing what you can do with the help of other forum members. John

I'm afraid I don't have any insights into kit manufacturers' mind, Zach, except to say that they will produce what they think will sell the most kits. John

Zach, I think that a scratch build will be your only way to a model of 'Endurance'. John

It's great fun, Russ, but be prepared for the most common questions and comments - "Where are the toilets?" "You must have a lot of patience." "Do you build with Balsa wood?" John

Praying for her and for your family situation, Walt! John

Thanks again, Folks. Yes Bob, it was a very pleasant day! John

Thanks for your support, one and all! John

Superb, Alexandru. John

Another very small update. Last time I was in the museum I temporarily abandoned the deck clamps in favour of starting to fit the bilge stringers, as one of the other model makers came in and wanted to photograph the process of inserting treenails for an article he was writing and the bilge was easier for his camera focus. What with photos, yarning about model making and an extended lunch in the museum café, I didn't get much done! John

Looks like you've made a really good start there, Dave. John

Just catching up, Mark. She looks superb. John

That looks just about acceptable, Toni! In reality - beautiful work. John

Not sure what your problem is with the run of the planks, Remco. John
