Thanks, donation to follow.
Here is where I am today.
Forgot to put anything in for scale, so the model is 45cms overall amd the dowell in the rowlocks pic is 6mm dia.

Go and look beyond the ranges,
Something lost beyond the ranges,
Lost and waiting for you,
Go."

Files have arrived safe and well, they are astounding.

Just finished the fly box, based on a Wheatley model.
Monogrammed "HD" for Hans who tied the flies.
(Apologies to Hans, my handling of his flies was not as delicate as it should have been, I will tidy them up later.)

Lovely piece of work. Flees and box. Would be nice to see a photo of it all together.

Thanks, and will do, but the intervention of the broonie season has relegated modelmaking to bad weather days only.
Still, might get plenty of them next week.......

Great job done there.
I must admit I feel a wee proud my initials are on the box.
Cheers for that.

Part-time

The flies and box are amazing Inchlaggan/Hans. Very much looking forward to seeing the rest of the model coming together - brownie season permitting of course.
