Anja Posted March 8, 2013 Author #63 Posted March 8, 2013 Hello Sherry, Thanks for looking in. Work is getting a little in the way of buildtime. I have to prepare myself for the interviews with my new employer. My first interview is coming up next week, on tuesday, and the second interview will be in the first week of april. So, it's a bit hectic at the moment, and difficult to concentrate on the build. But the last week of March I am free, and don't have to go to work. So I will certainly try to spend some time on my Half Moon. And how is your new build coming along. Have you sorted out the plans yet? I can't wait for you to get started. Thanks again Sherry and take care, Anja Quote Those we loved but lost are no longer where they were, but are always where we are. In the gallery: Albatros 1840 - Constructo
newbuilder101 Posted March 8, 2013 #64 Posted March 8, 2013 All the best on your upcoming interviews! I have printed out the 1:75 scale plans now scaled to 1:96 and I am gathering materials - I will soon be starting a build log! Quote Sherry Every goodbye is the birth of a memory...
