Good evening from 'The Dockyard'. A little more progress has been made, although sometimes on this build i feel as if i'm going backwards and not getting anywhere. The amount of electrical junction boxes i've made, all different shapes and sizes, has me wondering will there be an end! Well this update is filled with more electrical junction boxes!  Another week after this and that should see me out the other side and i can start some of the bigger equipment in this compartment. The attached photo shows a pressure gauge.

Well that concludes this update. I'm hoping to get the last of these smaller details closed out next week. I can then move onto making the emergency rudder control. Thanks for looking in and your comments, have a great weekend and happy modelling. Regards, Phil W.

Phil That is outstanding work. So small the parts but you still manage to get so much detail into them. I collected this kit with a view to getting it built one day even knowing it was lacking in detail. Now i see just how lacking the detail is compared to what you have added not sure mine will ever get looked at again. Hope yours continues as well as it has been and each bit gets you closer to that day when you can proudly sit back and say “Its finally complete”. Tony. Happy Modelling
