Hi gang,  I didn't get anything done on the harbor the last two weeks, because I ran out of scale lumber for the last dock. North East scale lumber was closed at the end of the year due to inventory.   So while I was waiting for my lumber order to come in I started to build this. from Seaport Model works.  It's the Coastal Passenger Steam Ferry. Kit #HI36W. I'm really enjoying building
This one.







I'll  get back working on the harbor next week. I just have to add the details on this first. to finish it up.  I don't like putting a kit aside unfinished.

Happy New Yewr everyone

Great work! Your thread is inspiring me to make some design changes on my upcoming harbor scene on the S&S RR.

Sam that is some fine work.  I have the same ferry but mine will be a long time to being finished.  What is the cup like appendage on your spring clamp and plier???

Looking very nice, Sam!

I bought one of their coastal freighters at the expo.  Hope it comes up as nice as your boat is looking.

Cheers, mark.

Thank you John,  when are you planing on starting you upcoming harbor?  I know your modeling skills are up there with the best of them, and I'm sure it will be awesome with your talent.

Hey thank you Donato,  those are the cowls, they are basically air vents used to get fresh air down into the deck house and lower decks. They are more commonly known as ventilators.

  Hi Mark, thank you.  This is a fun kit to build, although I had to read through the instruction a few times and keep checking over all the parts, but take your time and I sure you will be just fine with it.

  Good morning all,
   I spent most of the day yesterday at the work bench and I finished up my little ferry build. I started a week ago today on this little kit, New year,s eve, and now it's done. That got to be a record for me.
    I picked up my scale lumber yesterday so now it's back working on my harbor scene


  Have a good one all

The ferry looks good Sam. I take that it's one of Bruce's newer kits with the laser cut cabin and wheelhouse?
