Thanks I will work more on the anchor and fix the problem. and thanks for the hint on fairing the launch I have to admit , it is a little intimidating.

Looking good, but I would change that piece of plywood your using as a dry dock and replace it with a piece of melamine or something more substantial as it already looks like it is lifting at the front and you dont want a banana boat  Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

Much better with the anchor so well done.... Coming along nicely and I agree with Andy, swop the build board for something more substantial, MDF works well as does a piece of shelving. Problem with plywood is it is too easily warped.... .. Keep the pics coming, look forward to your next update..... Regards Alan

Coming along nicely, well done on the launch and should look fine with a light sanding. You will need to sand back a little the keel at the stern otherwise you'll have problems trying to fit the rudder later in the build.... .. Keep the pics coming... Regards Alan

Looks like you're getting well into this now For my build board I used a thick pine shelf that I picked up cheaply at a large DIY store, they were selling it cheap as the brakets and screws were missing, perfect for my needs

Things are still going well I am anxiously awaiting the second delivery for the next build. In themean time I replaced the plywood base with a solid pine shelf.

Hi Tom, a number of members have bought this item and all have been positive on it to date, don't think you will be disappointed as it's an excellent item to have for your builds. You may also find this excellent diary on the kit done by ARPuchase very useful too..... Hope this helps... http://forum.model-space...aspx?g=posts&t=8873

Hi Tom Like Alan I can totally recommend the above station, If you are a living room table builder it keeps everything stored away and is easy to move about if needed. One thing I would add if your moving it about a lot is maybe some carrying handles at the sides.
