  • THIS IS NOT A TUTORIAL! It is more of a daily personal diary, or perhaps a vlog, centered around the building of plastic model ships. Don’t be surprised when I unexpectedly, but usually just momentarily, get into something completely unrelated. I was big into building models years ago. Apparently I’m trying to bring back “the good old days” by building plastic model ships. Feel free to learn from my mistakes while I muddle through this.

    Good grief! What a magnificent build, Ron 👍 This has been a joy to follow and seeing the modules all in place is really something. Superb!

    Hi Ron, Great show today. I haven't had a land line for at least 10 years. I don't miss it a bit. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day. Jeff

    Great video Ron. Dottie was asking to comne sit on my lap to see Missie.. I think she listens out for the "How much is that doggie in the window tune". I cannot belive those ships boats have not arrived yet?

      Hi Nigel
      When Canada Post went on strike late last year it really through our postal system for a loop. I just got a Christmas card delivered the day before yesterday that had been sent about two months earlier. They must have mail stockpiled somewhere that they're trying to get sorted out. Of course we'll never know the truth. All we can do is go by what's actually happening. So I'm not surprised that your ship's boats are taking a little longer than expected, but I'm sure they will arrive eventually. 🤞

    Hi Ron, I believe those sanding papers have a self adhesive backing so they can be used with the manufacturers sanding block or anything you wish to stick them to such as a popsicle stick

    Ron we received 3.1 inches of snow today. We still use a landline but the signal goes out through our cable/internet line instead of the old phone line.

    • @roncalverley

      My landline is via the cable too.

    You could paint the base to look like seaweed, and then leave it on the bottom of the figure.
    Got rid of my landline a number of years ago when they jacked up the monthly rate and put in a battery-powered box "that works when the power goes out" Except I used a phone that was a base station and a cordless handset, and when the power went out the base station went dead. And since the phone company wanted $40 for a new battery and refused to remove it even though it was useless, I decided to dump the landline. A cell phone lets you call from on the road or at home, and I can only talk on one phone at a time anyway.
    Good luck with the phone situation.

    The base on the figure can be gently sanded off. Use a circular motion.

    Hi Ron, have you concided not permentanly glueing the side on while still displaying the boat? Maybe some book repairers clear adhesive tape. That way, if there is an issue with the LEDs, you may be able to fix it. Dave Porter, London

    Hi Ron, about the figure ..1/200 scale. i think the sub is 1/48 sale ...might be abit small

    • @roncalverley
      @roncalverley  2 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      When I realized I had made a mistake by saying 1/200 scale it was too late to change it. I'll make a retraction tomorrow. Sorry for the confusion. I meant to say 1/48 scale. Thanks for pointing this out. 👍
