Hi All;
This is a proud to be stubborn day. Funny how you put a mast on a model ship and it starts to look like a ship. Yesterday was the breakthrough. The tripod came together and stayed together. This morning, around 10:30, the struts and SPS-10 antenna assembly went on fairly easily. The SPS-28 was assembled, but the tremors were so bad that I couldn't attach it. Around 12:30 i tried again. Bingo! It's odd what difference a couple of hours makes. Most of the remainder are small items, but are drawn and should go fairly smoothly. Some of the items which I would like to add simply are not possible in this scale. In the hands of a good experienced builder DD-793 should look much better.
