boatman's 1/72 HMS Tiger C20 build

Chris,
Outstanding work my friend. Really happy you found the problem. She is looking the nuts.
 
I had a picture in my mind Chris that your model room was like the scene in Apollo 13 where the guys are trying to work out how to bring the systems online with limited power available.....

Glad you got it all sorted.
