Maiden voyage at our Canoe Lake display last Sunday, once the teething problems were overcome :}





Now, get it working properly and lets see it at the lake. Good job so far :-))

When you build a model it will be the coolest model of all

why ?

because that is what you wanted and that is what you make it to be.

all my models are cool and I always want to make more and bigger ones, time and funds denote the result

Keep building them the way you are and you'll end up at your goal with some really great models to look back at.
