    March "What's on your Workbench?"

    ....got some more done on the stretched out Honk I've been working on. The bill/tongue were done with acrylics and will get a couple coats of semi gloss. The rest is blocked on with black and white rustoleum and will get two coats of flocking. Now, to learn how to use an airbrush!

    Stitch and Glue Gunning Box

    Thanks for the kind words boys. Bob, my father-in-law actually tried to put the chines in. I argued with him that s&g would be soooooo much faster and easier, but he wanted to put the chine logs in there. After breaking several, and damaging the ply, he finally gave in! You can see two...
