Looking good Lyle and good luck with the railings, and stay away from any bridges...

That thing fell pretty easily, but that was about a 1,000 ft vessel. So many questions, are wired things.

Oh, thanks.

Got the railing post on. Can one eye cross? I did "mis-place" two of them and used some stretched sprue to replace them. Things are drying overnight now. . . and I'll trim the replacements tomorrow.

Slow but sure progress there Lyle! You’re almost to the finish line… or in this case, the shore line :wink:

Shane, Carlos thank you.

I hope the “hanging of the thread” goes smoothly.

Nice, I think I remember this kit from the early 60s? My dad was a WWII vet and when I was a wee bit he built an LST, think this one. Brings back old memories! Carry on!
