Title: German Minesweeper
Post by: gribeauval on August 19, 2010, 10:01:41 pm
I have just finished an unusual, for me, project for a friend of a friend.

1: It's a kit!  :embarrassed:

2: It's not a lifeboat!  :o

Considering that Robbe say this is a 'beginners' kit there is so much to put off the new builder that they may never build another boat again!! The fit and finish of many of the parts leaves much to be desired and the instruction booklet has the worst quality of pictures and instructions I have seen for a while. Still I like a challenge and here is the result.

They are in the strip down shed Dan (where they are staying for a while) not on the building stocks!!  Anyway you've forgotten the De Havilland DH84 I want to build.  :D   PLUS the Monster needs some more work done.  :-))
