CHEERS Doug yes hopefully it will be sept 10th as warship day at norwich pond as im not sure about taken tiger to sheringham pond as the water is fairly high an as tiger S/S is high also i think it would get damaged very easy as there is a concrete oover hand at this pond so i'll wait till norwich pond as you say fingers crossed as im tryin not to be beaten on this ship
That's the spirit Chris. I don't honestly believe it will beat you!!
many thanks Doug for your support an all you guys thats whats keepin me goin an the wish to see all 4 yrs of work sail how it should do
DITTO Pete
YES I HOPE SO Garry an many thanks for the good wishes an jen an i hope you are healin well after your op an hope to see I/D sailin again soon but any detail pics if you have done anything but take it easy an get better soon
Agree with John. My mantra has always been 1 problem at a time. Finish 1 prob - then move on to prob number 2 and so on!!
WELL Guys god how well you all know me as yes it is sendin me round the bend not knowin what the fault is with that gun led as i think its in my brain condion to sort out a problem as soon as possible an yes Jim id like to do as all the guys say an leave it till after her sail an the october model show BUT i think i'll be climbin the walls if i dont have a look but its so complex all the wirein under that gun deck an it was a real trail to fit it all in the first place an if it is the LED then i will have to drill it out of the gun barrell an fit a new one in place which will be far from easy OH DEAR i feel defeated before i have even begun OH DEAR as mojo hit rock bottom again BUT i cant resist havin a look in side the gun turret so i will open it up an have a gentle look see will i ever get this ship right ? but wont know unless i have a butchers inside an ive ordered some new 3 mm yellow LEDS already so im prepared Aaarrch i feel as though ive failed on this model
You have not failed! In something this complex you are bound to have teething troubles. That’s why real boats have shakedown cruises……I say get ‘er sorted Chris, then when she sails at the October show you’ll have a grin from ear to ear! I know you can do it, so you should as well! :thumb2:
MANY THANKS Tim for sayin i have not failed on this model an that has brung up my mojo quite a bit cheers Sir an yes this is a complex model but i thought when building this model that id go all out for as many life like features as possible as this maybe my last big model but i think id better wait till i get them new led's an then maybe near sept 10th warship day so no go then it wont be long till model show in october so i think i'll have to just grin an bear it till these shows are over OH DEAR but cheers Tim for your thoughts on this subjeck
Well let's hope it stays working.
Thats electricery for yer!! Stops working - you fly into a panic!! Then when you either try and fix or, like me, get an electrician and find when he calls it all works fine!!!
Not a cold soldered joint is it Chris?
