Old Collingwood Posted March 4, 2017 Author Share #541 Posted March 4, 2017 Thank You for all the very nice comments its a condition that alas will only get worse as its a family ill past down from my late mother's side, just gets in the way and causes at best a constant ache in both hands and at worse pain and stiffness. As I use my hands for all my hobbies - model making, photography and recording keyboard music, its very frustrating. OC.

Old Collingwood Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share #544 Posted May 15, 2017 Hi folks thought I better say something on my build - well, I am still having quite bad hand problems from my condition that tbh seems to be not getting any better, even using my laptop is painful as resting my left hand and using the left key is pressing on the painful areas, flipping cant win, there isnt mutch I can do for it as its a guide and tendon problem and short of having major hand surgery, there is no way to treat it. Anyway enough of my moaning and to say that I will try to do some more to my build, even in little steps (Im feeling left out folks and miss the chat) Reagards as always OC.

Old Collingwood Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share #548 Posted August 24, 2017 Good afternoon folks - sorry its been so long since I was last on my build, my hand problem has been causing some problems and a lot of pain as I explained before, I was getting locked fingers by holding all the small pieces and tools. But with any luck I will make a fresh effort to carry on with her as she is sitting on the shelf looking very sad and un-loved, I owe it to her to continue. Thank you all for being so patient with me OC hexnut, CDW, Canute and 5 others 8 Quote Current builds 28mm Battle of Waterloo attack on La Haye Saint Diorama. 1/700 HMS Hood Flyhawk with PE, Resin and Wood Decking.

cog Posted August 24, 2017 Share #549 Posted August 24, 2017 Nothing like a test of patience OC. It's more important you do not ruin your hands by working (to much) on your model. I'd rather see her waiting for some action than hear you have ruined your hands because of it. So, take your time!

Old Collingwood Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share #555 Posted October 12, 2017 Good evening/morning or even afternoon, I have been getting build hungry and missing getting "hands on" so I have decided to have a bash in the next few days on the ole girl. I have been reviewing were I am on my build by going through my picturs, (I have her sat on our shelves covered in about ten feet of dust - well it looks that much - honest) I will have to use the wifes hairdryer to blow off the dust first. I will continue with the rear deck up towards the rear bulkheads, and I will be attaching the two gun tubs both port and starboard, and also a length of bunk rolls that I have seen attached to here bulwarks possibly for some splinter protection. I have edited one of my previous pictures to show what I mean. Cant wait my friends its been Waaaaaaaaaaaaay to long. OC.

Old Collingwood Posted October 14, 2017 Author Share #566 Posted October 14, 2017 Right then folks I got my mojo back and had a bash on the ole girl, I got may bag with all my bits and pieces and set up on the table, I decided the job of the day was to start on the base and pedestals, first I had to take them off the plastic frets and join them together, then I ligned them up on the base and drilled through the base to take the pedestal lugs, after doing this and getting a good fit - I put a bag around the base and pushed the pedestals into the holes with a plastic bag covering the base. Then it was outside with my black rattle can and a few coats were applied, after drying I moved the bag and dry pedestals and dry fitted to the base. Here are a few photos shot today showing the rear section and block, and the base/pedestals before and after paining. It was just an hours work but so so enjoyable, tomorrow I will glue the pedestals to the base then align them with the centerlign of the hull, and bore a couple of holes in the hull to take the top pedestal lugs, then secure both together.

Old Collingwood Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share #569 Posted October 15, 2017 Good day folks more work on the ole girl today I started off by over painting the pedestals in brass color as I thought they would look better than black, while they were drying I started boring out two holes under the hull ready to take the lugs on the pedestals. When they were both ready I offered them up and stuck using CA glue. Here are the photos - OC.
