We're off

Made a start, section 13.
finished shaping the hatches..... 4 in total, fore, midships, stern and an additional motor hatch too.

Drilled all the screw holes, 1.5mm, then opened up to 2.2 as instructed.. ( note just the hatches are 2.2... ) the screws will self tap into the smaller pilot holes.

Also the forward hatch magnet fitted, along with the main radio gear on /off switch.

"Make a mental note," will need to buy an extension lead to allow the switch harness to reach the rest of the electronics gear.

The forward hatch magnet, by the way, is simply the Robbe retaining method of the forward superstucture.. which has a very shallow lip ..



Tomorrow's another day.
