Not good news at all Bob, thinking about you all

[Allen Dewire]

Damn 'Admiral' Bob, you guys are not getting a break from bad news, at all. So sorry to hear this new prob with your mom. Hoping & wishing all the best for her and for you my friend. Oh and a happy birthday to Julie too. It probably wasn't too happy though...............

Bob, I think it would be safe to say you and your family are in all our thoughts right now. All we can do is hope your mum manages to get all the help she needs at this awful time.

[Tim Marlow]

So sorry to hear that Bob. You are in my thoughts.

[Andy the Sheep]

Bob, don't know what to say but be strong and remember there are friends here sharing your sorrow.

[BattleshipBob]

Thank you yet again folks, you thoughts are greatly appreciated!

Finally dragged myself back to the mighty Hood. Sorry for the total lack of progress but other things on my mind. This might take longer to build than the actual ship lol

So started to remove the horrible degaussing cables as the Eduard set has pe ones which are much better. In between hospital visits I have been watching a few ship builds on YT, and thankfully the builders have built the ships slowly and passed on some very useful techniques! Greatly improved my sanding and the need to do a lot more prep on the hull!


This took ages but will get there, also various sink marks and scratches to also sort out. Surprised how poor the hull is

Sorry again folks but hope to carry on the work
