Thanks Uwe. As I am doing the same, I now feel happy to learn that I am following in the footsteps of a master-builder. And NO, that does not mean I'll be cutting my ship in half...following can only go so far .Many Thanks to @dockattner , @Alan56 , @Dubz Modelling World , @Maarten and @Peter Gutterman for your kind words and all likes already received
