Thanks for taking the time to comment Derek appreciated Progress will slow down as I strengthen the frames Deck in place but not glued as not sure to plank on top of deck or remove card where the planking lies to allow for thickness of wood Came across a post by Z800??? on the Vic diaries with regards to uploading pics via imgur. Thanks for that Only problem now is although I can see what I have posted I cannot see what others have Refresh, refresh, refresh give up Thanks for lookin'

Thanks for looking Gents and taking the time to comment Progress will slow down I can spend quite a lot of time sat in the car twiddling my thumbs waiting for my next call to come in So I bring a few bits n bobs with me to cut out some of the parts, that saves a lot of my own time Balsa used to fill in fore n aft sections. Getting close to the template edges so will need to take my time and show a bit of patience especially the round parts for the prop shaft Don't want them looking like a 20 pence piece I have decided to plank using 1mm lime strips rather than use the card templates If i used card i would have to place strips between the frames to prevent the templates sagging inwards giving the 'starved cow' effect

Hi Folks progressing slowly with planking and cutting out templates Added metal washers to try and keep prop shaft round, don't want it to end up like a thruppeny bit when sanding
