A no insignificant challenge with a big model such as this is the weight. No so much you can't lift it, but rather HOW do you lift it Clearly grabbing the cat walks isn't going to be an option. If you haven't already, you may want to think about a carry box of some sort...perhaps sooner than later.Nice work Chris!Dave
No shop time today - our local RC submarine squadron was at the WinterFest event in Buffalo putting on a show (okay, mainly we were just out playing for the day) at the Tonawanda Aquatic Center pool. In addition to a submarine I took along the Shrimpboat that I showed on this thread a while back, which Thomas had sent me the plywood hull kit and plans for. This was the first time out with the net towing masts in place.Ran great, all was terrific until a Croc (Gator? Whichever, either way was scary) that was on the run from Don1966's home town:The captain took one look and high-tailed it for the other side of the pool! Tomorrow I'll likely get back to the engine catwalks. Maybe tonight do some - there is a big snowstorm moving in tonight that looks like it will dump about a foot and a half in this area, maybe more. Gee, I have to stay home and play in the shop.... Darn! Nice to have the indoor shop room, it was 5 degrees F when I left for the pool this morning, a backyard shed would be crazy in this kind of weather.
Love the shrimp boat DOG but what happen to the gator no tail…..LOL.. DON
6" of pure unadulterated supersaturated snow....It's like trying to move a driveway covered in slurpies!Beat the hell out of the snow blower....Dave
