Stuart, it was an exhilarating aroma for a bit!

Not much done. For some reason my right index finger has given in to arthritis, miserable.

That so much fun. I'm getting that in the base of both thumbs... :headslap:

Nice progress on your Liberty ship! :shoutout:

learning to take one’s time, stop if it doesn’t feel right, taking time to actually study the directions can be a long raked for a very impatient guy. Still trying to figure out how to attach the piece that broke off, as well. Have a couple of ideas. Going to the hospital every day, getting home mid afternoon is tiring.

You obviously have your family priorities that need tending to first. The model will be there for you when time allows. Hopefully it’s a nice distraction from your current rough patch. It’s in no hurry to be built.

PE won’t be a problem if I keep loosing it.

Not a good day. Cut three hatch cover straps. Lost three. Found one. Gave up for the night.
