    One more photo showing the final Display Case; John

    One final item to close out this build. I just received a new acrylic display case for Regina, as shown below; I found the supplier (Acrylicjob, located in North Hollywood, California) on eBay. The case comes disassembled - a wood base, 4 sides, & a top. Each acrylic piece is accurately cut to size with smooth edges, & with protective adhesive paper on both sides. Assembly is dry fit and does not require tools or adhesives. Good packaging prevented the possibility of damage during shipment . Stay safe! John

    Glad the repair is going well, Jeff. All the talk about fuel, engines, engineering, etc, reminded me of my father. He was an engine room artificer in the RCN during WWII. He had a few stories to tell about life below decks. Luckily, he cleaned up pretty good when he came out of the engine room ... & before he met my mother. John

    Hi Jeff. Just to summarize, the blue ensign was flown at the jack staff on RCN ships from 1910 to 1965, when alongside, moored, or at anchor. Note the 3 different versions of the badge/shield located in the lower right quadrant of the flag, as shown below. I agree with you & Rob, that the blue ensign does look pretty nice. John

    Thanks David. The mast spiders are breathing a sigh of relief. Looking forward to seeing the next instalments on your awesome HMS Victorious -1961 build, especially the 'mast production'. John

    Thanks for your kind comments. one72, thanks for sharing your story. I saw HMCS Regina in the Esquimalt dockyard last May. She looked a little plain back in her overall grey paint job, compared to the camo scheme. lol

    Thanks beefy and Rob. Very much appreciated. I've learned a lot as well beefy. First time I've scratch built at 1/350 scale. Rob, my next project is sitting on my desk. My kids gave me the Anycubic 3D printer while I was immersed in the Regina build. I couldn't find the time to learn how to use the printer. Regina is done & it's time to learn how to use the printer. I wish I knew how to use it when I was making the Cyclone. John
