I see now. I used round rods, epoxy and baking soda attached lower halves first, checked for free movement then attached top halves. I am having trouble getting my head around the square tubes...

Hahaha, well eventually I may invest in a larger scale then my 1:96 Blueback to sail in a lake or pond, but right now I only sail in my pool and the 1:96 does ok but a tight squeeze. I also want to try 1:144 for easier transporting to my home that has the pool in my tiny JCW Mini Cooper! Lol

All magnets in place for screwless separation of the hulls and the sail. Very happy with the hull lines which match up almost perfectly, will make some minor adjustments. Recieved my driveshaft from Harbor Models which is beautiful and perfect for my Kilo. Waiting on some aluminum tubes to make the scooes and antennas.6 Photos
