Jim you are such a plonker, everyone and his dog can read this, if you want a private conversation you need to pm (that's private message) them and I know it's confusing but eddiesolo is actually Si, (you'll have to forgive him Si he's new to this) its great you've started this again Jim looking good so far, is that the airfix kit.

Hi jim can you not save the transom (that's the stern part of the ship) or use that part as a pattern to make a new one from.

[james pithouse]

hi all good news I got the new part for this boat but I have not got a very small paint brush to paint between the windows and I mean small paint brush because I also have to paint certain parts black and the wooden parts yellow and the glass blue I looked on scale model shop but I can not fined the smallest brush for the job and now it's a headache to find the smallest tipped paint brush
