After I saw your post I looked up that model you bought via UK shop. Looks really neat and something a little different. I just acquired a Calder Craft "Milford Star" steamer via LoyalHanna Dockyard. Was $$$$$ but is gonna be fun to build. It's a kit with fiberglass hull, a little wood and hundreds if not thousands of white metal castings, fittings, etc. This will be very different for me to build than most of the wooden boats I've completed from Dumas and Midwest.
