hof00 Posted Tuesday at 05:52 AM Author Share #91 Posted Tuesday at 05:52 AM Hi All, Small update: Second Planking complete (Perhaps a "Tickle" here and there) Rudder Blank constructed So, the more I get into this model, the more I come to realize that it's more of a scratch build than a kit. I'm o.k. with this. There is "Sod" all in the way of materials, (As I have bemoaned about many times before), I had to have a damn good search for 0.5 X 3.0 MM Planking Material below the turn of the Bilges.... I milled my own 4.0 X 4.0mm wood for the Rudder laminations and other stock milled for Bitts, Etc. I am unsure what I will approach next, but I have plenty to do.... 🙂 Onward, I guess. Cheers.... HOF.

Wawona59 Posted 1 hour ago Share #97 Posted 1 hour ago Well, it's clear that the early issues you had with the keel fit are now a distant memory. Scratch building, even on kits, just seems to be part of the ship modeling game. Keep up the beautiful work.
