Good Morning, Gentlemen!
Those Vice Grips that were shown holding the Brass Aerial Mount have shown up in this Build and others. Background stuff but they are of particular importance having been sent to me by another Past ( Now Enshrined ) Member of the Forum from those same Islands. He did not know (noted in his last Missive to me) if they would be of any use but as they are miniature in size and my fingers suffer from frequent visits by Uncle Arty, they are perfect for holding small stuff steady while it is being modded\mauled by me ;0) I have a couple of sets and try to make use of them all throughout Builds, Home Repairs, etc. It is funny how the small things in Life grow Large when properly viewed. More KT fun to come. Some scribing to make molded on pieces look more realistic.
regards,
Painless

For those that celebrate it, Happy 4th of July!
I turned from scribing to working on the extra anti-Grenade mesh over the Engine Deck. Turned out OK. I took a few minutes to prime and paint and fix them in place. I made sure that they were the proper height for the turret to turn unobstructed. Progress.
regards
Painless
