Hi Albert,

 

Great work!  Did you have any trouble enlarging the plans for the 1/48 scale?  Is the table that you are working on what you will use for your building board?

 

Thanks,

 

Reg

Oh my, another build that I must now follow.  Your work has sure started off beautifully!

Very nice start Albert. I'll certainly follow along with this one.

This build is deffo an exercise in precision... I think you would need a 'bit-of-a-lie-down' if you saw my work station Albert (think 'explosion in a timber yard' and you'd not be too far off) :)

Wonderful to watch the pinnacle of this hobby of ours!

Albert,

 

Very nice work on the shipway, the gantry and the clamped squares.  I trust they will serve you well in the work ahaead.  I join the others in marvelling at the neatness of your workspace.

 

Again, good luck with the build.

Albert, one other thing - I know it is dificult to provide English text with your pictures, but I am sure everyone would be interested in descriptions. Perhaps you can use Google translate to give English translations. I know this will add work to your postings, but your initial progress promises to yield a very beautiful model and I can assure you that many - I for sure - would like to read your descriptions of the work.

 

Just a suggestion.

Nice work Albert. Are you using a scroll saw or cutting parts out by hand?
