Andy's Modelmaking Misadventures

[Andy in Germany]

If it floats your boat and doesn't hurt animals and children.........

I see what you did there.

After last week’s realisation that I was, once again, going to be making lots of little bits, I as usual sighed, got out my knife and started cutting…

Then gluing...

Then cutting some more, and gluing some more…

Let’s not mention the moment I realised I’d miscounted, again, and had to cut a whole fresh batch in order to make enough for all the hatches…

But eventually after even more cutting, and sanding, and supergluing everything to everything else, pulling it apart again and gluing things to what they were supposed to be attached to, I had a set of sort of almost identical hinges for the ships hold covers…

Finally finished: that was bugging me for some time.

Another part of the ship that’s bugging me is those Lifeboat davits: I’ve been trying to convince myself they don’t need a rope, but I’m failing…

Impressive, but I do worry if you are getting out enough

Having a social life is overrated.

Having a social life is overrated.

By the people who need it most.
