Frustrated

Quite often I'll have a smaller project on the go at the same time as I'm working on a larger build. The small one gives me some instant gratification as I can readily see progress and movement towards completion. Also, if I'm doing something like hull planking, I'll usually only place a couple of planks per side in each evening. Then once that's done, I'll work on the smaller build to get a few hours in each day. Case in point: working on the Red Dragon as a side hustle while grinding on with the HMS Victory. The Victory likely has a few years left to go before completion, but the Red Dragon should be wrapped up by the end of this month.
