Re: Harbour Tug in dry dock images
Marcel says the Moustache is so yhat the rubber doesn’t larve a mark on the grey paint on navy vessels. The said the lower bars on the bow are for maneuvering the submarine’s as their hull is round.

@ColRay "...Hello Dodgy Thanks I will take a look Col..." What do you think of the Amber Spyglass system? Very cheap - less than £300 for the smallest basic frame - and it goes together like meccano. I got one at 1mx0.5m - ideally I should …

Re: Brooklyn Tug
@puttn Hey there! Honestly. I would take out anything that took me too far away from what I’d like to do and fabricate what I need to do to keep me as close to the instructions as I can. Some decent two part epoxy and a lightweight fibergla …

Re: Model Expo/Seguin tug 1:32 scale
@chugalone100 beautiful job! I did that kit about 35 years ago - it was only the second wooden thing I'd built, and it's definitely not in the league yours is. WHAT did you do to make the lifeboat covering. It looks perfectly like weathered …

Re: Brooklyn Tug
@jumpugly Do you have a drawing or something to make a copy of the frames at the center of the model’s hull, something that Stacey could use to extend the hull the required length?
