Default Not much progress on ship

Not much progress on my ship model lately, as you can expect. Haven't been up to working on the ship much, but I did manage to do some more carving on something......if I can only find it in this mess! Now what was it and where did I put them???

Bob more amazing than your work is how tidy you keep your workshop. Great job on the ship I love watching the progress.

Bob,

Can't really imagine how a ship like that is built. Wish I would have seen pictures from the beginning.

Nice work!

Mike

Bob that is a beautiful ship. I noticed the pencil eraser is like mine. Worn down to the stub. Unbelieveable good work.
I hope my wife dosen't see how neat he keeps his work area, if she does I'll be in for a little growl. Just kidding,

Bob. that's a good practice to get into, I mean, doing work when you feel like it, I find if I do something because I feel I have to, my heart just isn't into it, and that's when I make mistakes and get frustrated. Take it easy and get yourself a big plate of clam strips and fries, with extra tartar sauce!
