>> my desktop PC is still down, needs a new hard drive. and the board won't allow me to log in with my laptop, under my true screen name. Soooooo......
Sumpter 251, is what I have to use for the laptop, until (if) I can use both PCs with the same login Identity.
Four months !!!!!
Yeah, but there has been a bit of "ironwork", done, and next is the making of all the shackles, and shackle pins, to attach rigging lines, and blocks, to sails and masts.
Progress is slow here, but ongoing...... ( and a bit enraging, when a "just finished" shackle goes "ping" from the tips of the tweezers holding it, and lands in the fibers of the carpet.........talk about needles in hay stacks :o )
Some of the ironwork ( mast bands, eye bolts,,etc. ) have been started, and there's a ton more to build. Yeah this level of detail takes time......lots, and LOTS, of time.
:oops: ( yes, there are castings of some of these things, but not small enough for a 1:87 scale model............when I am building it.
Hey !!!!
hock: I heard that whispered ......."perfectionist" :geek:

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
