Hi Jeff, It is still a runner, 50 people have registered their participation, with others showing interest. I am waiting for details of issue 90 which is the second part of the gallery build, I am only at 78 in my subscription, I need someone to let me know when they receive issue 90. Glenn you are on the list.

Nice ships wheel, but will its overall size fit the height space within the wheel area, it looks a tad too big?

SHIPS WHEEL The wheel will end up at approx 21mm, spoke tip to spoke tip ( the build wheel is Approx 22mm) The turning on the brass spokes is exceptional on the proposed Wheel, with the correct amount of spokes ( 10) Comments welcome MWG BUILD DIARIES: HMS VICTORY, SOVEREIGN OF THE SEAS, SAN FRANCISCO II, HMS HOOD, HMS ENDEAVOUR LONGBOAT, HMS VICTORY X-SECTION, 007 DB5, NISSAN GTR, CUTTY SARK, RB7, AKAGI, BARK HMS ENDEAVOUR, HUMMER H1, MITSUBISHI ZERO.

realy loverly wheel with the correct number of hand thingys  However if I may cast a constructive eye over your road to perfection. I think the detail is a little too elaborate. It would look more authentic if you lost the dimples. I will buy one though “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

Hi Mike, hope you had a good time over the festive season. I know it's only a short time into the new year but have you any idea when we may see a result on the gallery enhancement, I think a few of us are just about at that stage if the build. And while I'm here, HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone on the forum Jeff
