I was working on it and thinking how cool it would be to do all kinds of cool stuff to it. hard to believe....but as I was building it, I was actually putting in all the upgrades I was thinking about. when I realized what I was doing......I did the next best thing.......I built another one using the plans, tracing the hull parts from the wood panels. I had to purchase a few additional parts, but I came up with a very interesting pair The Phylly C and the Denny-Zen. they are the same, but they have subtle differences that set them apart. pictured here are the traps for the lobster boat.....I made a couple extra than what the kit supplied material for. now they need to be fitted out with the equipment they need to do their jobs........work and play........it's all good!![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
