        Now that is a great gift. Well done to your good lady wife!
        And yes, I will look forward to seeing this come together - plank by plank.
        Great stuff, Brian

            Me too!!
            Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                  Just took it to my model room, I was surprised how heavy it is. (16kg)
                  I need a few things on top or things I use for plastic models so going shopping today, welcome to all who have got a comfy chair pulled up :smiling3:

                      I agree, this should be a fun, long build.

                        Let me know if you want an unboxing (there is a lot) otherwise I won't bother, making a start tomorrow

                          Forget the unboxing... Just worried my eyebrows will not grow long and grey and obscure my vision with the length the build takes....
