All ready for the deck tomorrow.
Fill like I have not done a lot today.
Then the preparation is what takes the time.

That’s an impressive superstructure build, it’ll look fantastic when you’re finished .

What day I have had.
Cutting, bending and soldering.
It has been a bit of a long day.
The gantry and mast is now made.
Just a bit to do around the side's of the gantry.
Getting there slowly.

Had a bit of a disastrous day.
Must remember to measure twice make once.
Spent 3 hours making some bits only to find out that I had made them 2mm over size.
Could not adjust them without them looking bad.
So they went in the bin.
Did a bit this afternoon got some hand rails done.

Some nice brass work there Alan

AT Boatyard · « **Reply #38 on:** March 12, 2019, 10:53:07 pm »

More brass work today.
I have remade the ladder as it needed to be bigger.
I have detailed the gantry more and made the body support.
Every thing from the deck up is scratch built from photos and a 75mms line drawing. Thank you Phil.

Had a painting day.
I have paint all the brass work and the blue on the hull.
Got the lights on the gantry and mast.
All working great.

That's a cracking job to date - what paint have you used on the gantry please Alan?
