Thanks Essex, but I'll distance myself and the boat as far as possible from the TV farce...      ok2

First time I have had a look at this build - it is beautifully made and the metalwork is stunning
The only thing I'm not keen on is the colour of the deck on the full sized version - like the colour of a 60's bathroom suite.
Excellent build.

But so very right for Southern California!

Get out in the sand, under the sun and palm trees, with your shorts, shades, and flip-flops on... and it will all seem right to you!

I wish I could learn to polish stuff better...

Federal Signal CP100 siren, machined from brass and nickel plated. Body is almost 1/2" diameter. 

I love your detail here! The siren now looks fantastic in place.
I think with models, in the same way a satin paint finish on the model replicates a gloss finish on the real thing, your nickel plating (ie not as shiny) replicates the chrome of the real thing and looks "real" on your model. Great work. Thanks for sharing it and your expertise.

Took it to the local model show (a little thing we do here, for 57 years now); did OK.
