At this moment in time it feels C**P as i have put a lot of work in to it. I think if i strip everthing down i may not have the heart to go on with it and then its a lot of money and time wasted.
As i have allready decided on how the builds are going to be diplayed, only one side will be seen so any one that comes to my place will not know how badley i messed up.
So will make the most now of a bad start.
Foz Man, this is just heartbreaking. Following this poor guys build (I know it's an old one) you can feel his enthusiasm at getting this far only to be told there was a fault.
It's a shame that this hadn't been noticed before he got this far.

Thanks for the kind comments guys, am enjoying getting back into this build. Started the next part today by cutting out the nottchesin the top of the lower mast build. Took a good look at it then gave me hands a rest, thought id done a good job untill i went back to it later and realised i cut the notchies out on the wrong sides.   Ah well time to patch it up and start that part again lol Foz
