Kevin Posted January 19, 2022 Author #72 Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) Good morning everyone i was bitterly upset and very grumpy last night, and felt extremely silly with myself, it was nothing more than tripping over my own feet, as i swung around off my bench, the damage is/was completely beyond repair, i looked to see if the keel was fit to use, even the floor had ripped as my full weight went through the frames Anyway, what to do next well the Admiral decided for me, just do it again, the full kit is on order and being posted today, this thread will be renamed and i will just restart a full build Edited January 19, 2022 by Kevin Canute, WalrusGuy, king derelict and 8 others 8 3 Its all part of Kev's journey, bit like going to the dark side, but with the lights on All the best Kevin SAY NO TO PIRACY.
