I have to say that getting advice from someone who actually knows what he is doing ( in stark contrast to me ) is extremely gratifying and encouraging. I have already seen the effects of tweezer and snipper deficiencies so I am definitely on the lookout for looooooonger and better quality tools. As for instructions, your clipper ship project requires that you write your own. Your build is absolutely astounding.
And I did take a break and work on another model for a bit and doing so helped a lot. I have not had to work on the other model for quite a while now. Making progress on the Victory has kept me focused and enthused. And breaking the back of the ratlines has helped a lot!!
As for the weather, it is unseasonably warm. And I write this entry on November 1, 2025. Tonight the whole country will be watching as baseball events unfold in Toronto. I wont be working on the Victory!!
