Very nicely done, sir. She's a beauty


I am assuming your model-builders group isn't meeting right now, but I am sure they will eventually be impressed

That really came out great! It's not one I would have thought to build. I have to expand my horizons. Clever idea on the apron. I might steal the concept, but use black cloth that's attached to the table/workbench - spread it over my lap when working.
