                What a fantastic build Chris, a real work of art and a credit to the ship modellers skill! Really looks so good :thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2:

                  Amazing Chris. Good job you haven't got any near neighbours - they might have got the police round with all the gunfire going on....

                    My Gawd Chris!!!...Is there anything on Tiger that doesn't move, fire or light up?????? The only thing left, to my eyes, is to maybe having a motor to raise and lower the anchors!!! Other than that, you have everything covered Buddy. Another thing is all that wiring inside. You must have 300 pages of notes to remember where they all go and what each one does in the scheme of it. Pure respect Sir!!!......

                    On page 227, you showed the wiring in the hull and the only thoughts that came in my head was where did you get all the different colored spaghetti and where was the meatballs and sauce to go on it. Seriously though, it looks like she may be ready for her maiden voyage in the spring at the rate you're going. I bet that's gonna be an exciting time, to see all your hard work floating on the pond!!!...

                              WELL Pete there is still a bit more to be made an fitted on her so maybe nxt end of summer but again it all depends on the wheather as gerry said he would like to video her an put it on utube but all getting togeather on the spur of the moment is goin to be more than tricky an launch date well ? on that
                              but cheers for lookin in as im really pleased that ive had help from YOU an others or this ship may have never come into reality so i thank you all
