Have run out of timber for the hull, ordered more from the Modelers Shipyard, I found an issue didn't have the supplied strakes, more likely I've put them somewhere safe and don't remember where. Anyhoo she's on hold till the package arrives......Phil

No, still going on her........after the issues with the stern resin bit, I decided to collect all the issues before I started on her again, hence why I'm way behind everyone else, same with the Endeavour, I'm waiting for the crater to open up......Phil

Hey Phil, I've just viewed your last post (above) , it you want to see my deck.."now!"
go into Google, 'Build the Bismarck' 1st page, 3rd one down 'Tiitanic Titanic- view topic", then go to page 12, I've got photos posted there showing the 'lip' quite clearly, otherwise, it's Bonython!!.......Dave.
P/S, this was MY site and and a fellow builder from South Africa named Ande, it started off great, then just me, then Andre, and it still is to this day,with the addition of ..wait for it..another Andre, and he's from South Africa as well, hope the photos help....

Almost completed the second skin of the hull, one or two more gaps to fill and I'll begin preparations for painting, I hope to get some undercoat on her before it gets too cold, I don't normally paint in the winter, so if i miss my deadline....I'll put her away till spring.........Phil
