Hi Andy & Tony ,Thanks for your support and advice ,going to take my time with the metal work as I was never any good at it even at school, ( hated it infact ). Have notice some of the metal parts are a bit hit and miss but nothing that can't be sorted. Again thanks for your support.

Dave Some very neat work. Its all taking shape really well. I struggle with work space and do not have any place at the moment set up permanatly but can appreciate what you say about the shed getting colder. Looking at the forecast we have another one of those nerve racking storms coming in on thursday (caroline this time apparently) and the further threat of snow and ice after that. Hope you get the chance for some more building through the winter but watch your health sitting in cold areas for too long. Happy Modelling

First,To you all here,s wishing you a merry Christmas and a happy new year. I hope you all get the model,s you want from santa and you manage to get some modeling time in over the Christmas period. I've managed to do a bit to the boat but nothing worth reporting . Will up date you more when there,s more to report. Should get some thing done over Christmas as I'm hoping to lock my self away in the shed and let every one else get on with it. Merry Christmas. Dave M
