Thanks my friend.
I've never built a boat kit from such good quality mouldings, both the Revell and Caswell parts. I usually spend half the time cleaning up parts on other kits or in some cases discarding and scratch-building replacements. My last project had over 1000 white metal parts plus I scratched another 300, took two years to build and it's only 95% complete. I built a Robbe sub a few years ago and it took me nine months just to get the hull together, the fit and finish on some kits leave a lot be desired.
Only slight niggle is I've no knowledge of Skipjack subs, I bought the kit because it was in my local model shop discounted to half price, couldn't resist.
This one is going together easy so far and the quality gives lots of options for upgrading and improving............!
