Hi there Neil and Mick, yep I'll have those props off you for the Clyde Neil, not forgotten about them. I've not made a start on Clyde yet as been trying get the big Prinz Eugen something like, and work has been very busy. Still loads to do on PE it's such a monster and there's so much detail work to do. I am hoping to be able to sail it this year at a couple of shows, I don't usually like to sail unfinished projects but it could literally take years to complete.
Dave.

no mate........I meant the Clyde is the big one at 1:12 scale.
now a question for Furball please.

what lengths are the "full" planks on the B.A.S.P Lance.....would you know by any chance please.

they don't show on my plans from the RNLI.
cheers, neil.

furball · « **Reply #240 on:** January 27, 2013, 12:30:38 pm »

I'm trying to think if there actually are any long planks. The are so many hatches in the deck (fuel tank access, filler caps and pump deck plates), and with the long engine casing, most of the lengths are interrupted. Looking at the plans, I think there's one that's maybe 17 or 18 foot long running from the forward end box to the front of the canopy.

I'm sure if they could have got away with it, the planks would be continuous from end to end.

Lance

Neil · « **Reply #241 on:** January 27, 2013, 01:47:58 pm »

thanks Lance, that's what I wanted to hear....cheers.

Neil · « **Reply #244 on:** January 28, 2013, 10:10:45 pm »

And lastly, the Lego blank has been removed from the "back" of the mould box reveiling the underside of the mould/figure, ready to be used on the next mould box.
