Rub or not to Rub that is the question

Hi
Just a quick update on TID 1, I have fixed all the deck parts, and as my woodworking is Cxxp I have had to use some wood filler around the deck edge, so I am now sanding it down, I do so hope that I can get back to working on the wheekhousing again soon.

Hi Fred,

I bought a rough TID tug just before the Covid lock-down.

It really was a “rough” example, and nothing was worth saving, except - it had a really good glass fibre hull, so I stripped everything out of it so I only had the bare hull moulding left.

I scratch-built everything again onto the hull with reference to various plans and drawings - but mainly using photographs as a reference.

This was my first attempt at building anything with plastic card, and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it went together .

Seeing your progress here reminded me of a very enjoyable build.

Bob,
