Evan, I am very much enjoying following your build You’re also doing some great extra detail work as well. As a kid, and as a teenager I grew up, of course, with plastic cars and airplanes. Looking at your work in this medium is inspiring, and adding great personal memories. Excellent work and log. Your Titanic will be awesome indeed. PS in my opinion this ship does need to be built from plastic — PS 2 are you going to install real wood decks that are available for this kit? Cheers -

I've had both of these for years - always perfect - I also, more recently, bought the large Proxxon Fet saw - probably "overkill" for my needs. Still mostly use the KS 115. But the larger saw is fabulous for angle cutting as the table swivels as well! Your work is so excellent you might also want to consider the Proxxon MF 70?? a very excellent addition. Regards,

I - so many of us - have been waiting for “half as long” as it took Nat. Geo. discover where the Vasa had sunk to actually be able to buy this stunning kit, which looked (past time) to be too amazing indeed. High on so many “buy” lists indeed 😔 Expensive, PROBABLY, but too hard to ignore, and not buy- IMHO. PS: Forget about this one

Hi, It’s been a while since I’ve checked-in as well as posting any updates. Been busy with other bits of my life. But, very lately, having found some disposable time I have done further work on this so far “lifelong” build. Some thoughts - 🙂 1) I know hinges should be black along with other bits as well. I chose leaving the hinges brass purely for their looks – given this ship’s hundreds of other bronze parts, and that this project bears very little relationship to any historical accuracy. as I’ve mentioned before……. 2) But, I am regretful that the gun ports (doors) appear a bit too thick. I had overlaid thin strips above some other matching wood strips that I had available, and cut to size. No other (to me available) wood matched the very light outer hull planks that run the lengths of the lower, and upper-gun decks. And I don’t have a wood strip sanding drum. So be it…. Thanks for your continued interest. Regards,

Ronald - just discovered your log as many have posted incredibly good work - your hull planking is so perfect 👍. will go back and look through this build as well. PS so like the horseshoe detail as well Cheers,

Such beautiful work - builders such as you rise to the occasion of such a complicated build given that 1000s of images of this ship that are available (helpful indeed - but those details are beyond my skill set) that said, errors then could become issues 😬 Not for you - perfect - my skill set will never rise to your great build — Big cheers to you 😊 We all have our comfort levels. Your work in this log has been SO appreciated - enjoyed following 👍 PS: when I was working I had a few days layover KLHR that - of course - put me on a train to Portsmouth - and Mary Rose before the museum was rebuilt to its current great rebuild.. Cheers MJD
