      That is a awesome idea. I will do the mods to the 1/96 Delta III hull plug and change it into a Delta IV

              1/72 Abraham Lincoln SSBN 602 build

              Ok first layer of cloth laid on the hull. Pics of the stern planes and top of sail fresh out of the molds. Pic of the sail mold. 1/72 Thresher almost done. Should have the 1/96 Delta IV hull plug glassed by this weekend. Had to sneak a pic of one of my next builds.

                  Hi Tim
                  Your work as usual is Excellent! Your detailing is beyond belief, I bet you get orders when your ready to sell hulls. I like the tease picture of your future build.

                    George that Victor III will be 1/72. The Delta IV I am working on is the last 1/96 I do. Only future boat I am on the fence for either 1/72 or 1/96 is the Yankee II.

                              Thanks Matt. You don't know how many times I stood a watch on that turtle deck with a .45 pistol strapped to my hip on the Lincoln.
