Hi Chris
Outstanding work on the superstructure detail and your electronics work continues to amaze. With regards to the RC bind, Iโve found through my few RC projects that there always seems to be some problem to overcome. I know you will solve these issues Chris and, in time, Tiger will join your ever growing flotilla of amazing model ships.
Keep up the great work

HI ALL well this is my tribute build to Simon T an its not finished yet as a lot more has got to be made an ftted on but just before he passed on i found out that he knew more about me than i did my self an he made me laugh such a nice gent an this is what he said to me in a pm an i dont think he'd mind me showin you all what he said below
Can I ask you a question please? Why do you always miss D and G off the end of words in your writings - is it some form of dyslexia?
No pressure if you don't want to answer then fair enough, just curious
All the best
SimonT
an again Simon exsplains why he noticed this about me as ive never noticed
but he certainly picked up on it an again made me laugh at how he spotted it he was a true gent what he said below an i think he's right
In primary school we were bombarded with spelling tests - either daily or weekly I can not remember which but we would get lists of ten words to learn for a test.
As a result my spelling has always been pretty good.
For work I have spent the last thirty odd years converting engineers scribbles into presentable 2D and latterly 3D drawings. Engineers are notoriously well known for not being very good at spelling. It means I have had a lot practice correcting other peopleโs writing so errors tend to jump out at me
I shall try and remember to pm :thumb2:
All the best to you both
SimonT
i did not know Simon as well as most of you guys but he certainly knew more about myself than i knew about me an i'll always be gratefull to him for pointing it out to me an yes i know im a rotten speller but i think you all know what i mean an this is a forgiving forum so no worries for me an now in the next posts the pics as a tribute to him as he passed on while i was building this so i think its fitting to show this bridge build an when i show it an look at it for me as well as you guys lets all think of Simon an what a gentelman he was
