Thank You Tim. We

It is so good to see the flatbed kit back! This has always been a recommended first build.
Very nice job!

Be ready because Model Expo is bringing all of them back.
The one I’m really anxious to see in production is the “TOUR MASTER 961”.

Excellent work and great suggestions for completing the sails. sails for the Flattie

I’m glad you like them.
These sails are my third attempt. I tried other methods but they all failed.
The method I described here is the best that worked for me and the fastest with excellent results.

Thank you for sharing those pictures with us.
From what I can see, it’s looking great and will be for sure, an outstanding looking model.

You’ll have lots of fun building it. There are many details that can be added to it. I was limited in adding anything because ME wanted me to built the model according to the instructions and using only the materials provided with the kit.
There are thousands of pictures on Pinterest that you can use as reference to find these details that will add beauty and realism to your model.
I will be following your building log whenever you decide to start it.

Donfarr:
We found today the blueprint you where looking for.
Carlos will make a copy of it and ME will send you a free copy.
Now we can all see you finishing your model.

 

[Kurt Konrath]

I have built one similar from MWP and my tutor at the time gave me some thin strips and said make it a bit different and talked me into to adding planking to hatch cover and to the seats with the thin strips, to give it a bit more less plywood look.

Kurt:
Do you still have the model? Or pictures of it?

 

[donfarr]

THANK YOU BLUEBEARD GREAT NEWS, REALLY GREAT LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING ON IT. GOD BLESS STAY SAFE YOU AND YOURS DON
