  1. I can see part of the height Scott as a splash guard for the sink but that's why we have towels/wash cloths.The new height really fits mush better what a difference 4.5" makes(looked like 1.5sq.).
  2. i hear ya brother She came out better for it.Now off to my Scotch.
  3. Nice Build !and is this the one you were rigging imitating the Pub?😋
  4. Cool! I do not dispose of any of my builds Jerry I like how they timeline efforts and skillset's.They all look very good and worthy of display.
  5. Like I mentioned before I like to cook and bake today's menu Homemade Apple Pie.The wife and I have been baking more of what we call goodies instead of buying fructose and yellow dye #7I got to hit the gym and put on some more weight pisses me off seriously after a hard workout I can weight up to four pounds heavier in an 1 1/2 hrs.It's does shed but I am bending and moving easier from the waist area and the back is getting stronger my numbers this afternoon 1/21/23 1PM 126/70 P52 no W/O 200mg caffeine 8am an I am 62 yrs old and feel 40/45 like I said I am getting younger W/O = workout When I had that scan some weeks back for calcium the tech said "for someone who had caffeine in the last four hours you have a Nice pulse rate" My calcium scan was 83 in the bottom 20% 400/500 means stroke is close by.
  6. Looks like the solution John Thanks.
  7. Rob bags around the barrels?
  8. I use the cardboard backing that comes with the PE on glass with a new blade.
  9. And when you start to thrash them Carl will be even better.
  10. World Class Work!!
  11. Kinda like the Navy Seal who died in Ukraine been in since 1991 and listed as deserter? https://www.foxnews.com/world/navy-seal-deserter-killed-ukraine Something in this story does not add up?
  12. Yes it does should look pretty kool.
  13. John I will take the MKXVI.I just can't stop buying but it will be my first Tamy of this Spits.
  14. One of those that got away let go I wish I had it back.I sold it to a fella in Quanitco VA back in 2007 for $1500 now you are hard press to touch one less than $3500+.I needed funds for the shop in the back ground it was sold in 24 hrs on a forum I belonged to that was mainly LEO affiliated.
  15. Not a bad day it's progress all is just sitting in play.I have the torpedo cradles on the deck use a .015" wire at the top for the lock.I still need to touch up the armor for the cabin area and do some wood on the back of the cabin.I have one coat of an oil we get out of Vicksburg MS on the Paduak after I do the Roman on the edge will add one more.I am thinking of moving the 37mm from the rear to the center and place the Quad 20mm at the rear the normal location.The 37mm is going to look good after the right paint and 2 1/2hrs of building with all the PE pieces.
  16. I like the floor!!
  17. Very Nice Build Ernie I esp. like the one pic of the rear office from r/rear it looked real,
  18. It's coming together Bill.
  19. So that was Copping's Kitty Hawk? Can you shed some light/history as to what happened or presumed to of have happened?
  20. Still got to go through the router table for the edges Gary simple not to elaborate.
  21. I have started on the base I am using Padauk https://www.bellforestproducts.com/padauk/ as opposed to my usual Sapele https://www.bellforestproducts.com/sapele/.The brass I ordered from Blue Jacket 3/16" slot I like using it giving a more traditional look/appeal.I grew weary tonight after about an hours work a little more just not going good/right said time to call it quits before I bugger it up.I did get a couple more PE torpedo cradles done but talk about a PIA but they will look Nice when compete big improvement over the kit.What I need is to obtain some more torpedoes I have four spots and only two torpedoes I then can either make depth charges or order from these guys next week closed till the 17th https://starling-models.co.uk/password This build is no horse race for sure somehow I figure their will be a point it comes together quite quickly.
  22. Slightly disappointed on my Orange 1/72 German 20mm quadruple Flak 38 advertised with metal barrels and none in the box I have sent a message to the seller I will have to work with what I have no time to turn back move forward is the word all will be good in the end. It says "metal barrel assembled model" looks like my misunderstanding https://www.ebay.com/itm/195508396220
  23. luv'in that effect Mike Top Notch!!
