A few weeks ago I fractured my hip and had to get a new ball joint. So, I am not moving too well and want to start building my Mantua Soleil Royale kit. My workshop is in the basement and that is out for now, but I have made a temporary work area upstairs for another reason before I broke my hip and will use that. I cant sit for very long at the bench but I am going to at least get started.
I do not know that you would call this a build log but here it is. I am not looking to make the best scale model in the world, but just to occupy some time and build a model. I am 76 now and not far away from 77 and I have many projects I would like to get done so I am not sure how far or what degree of precision I will go. What is shown in the picture is the frames just placed together before gluing to make sure all is well. I do not think this will be a step by step construction article but just showing some work as it progresses if there is any interest. It appears to be a nice kit with laser cutting that is pretty impressive...
