I was being polite about talking to the kids  My blood pressure was breached and I was persuading them with some raised tones  but this time round My Son and Daughter will be helping me on the Victory build due to the loss of feeling in my hands, so I cant shout as much, but I can blame them if anything goes wrong Ship Builds on the go

I decided that having been given a pin pusher with the 'free' toolkit I might as well try it. I decided to pin all the nails for the lower deck in place before attempting to position the decking on the model.
I had no trouble using the tool, the pins stayed in and I found I could accurately place them in the deck.
Much more fun was when Ben, my 4 yr-old grandson, came round and we worked as a team! I held the pusher in place and he provided the downwards force to push them in.
Once I got the nails in place I then used a modelling hammer to finish nailing the decks onto the model.
