As you suggest, it would fit well in many places in the world.<br /><br /><br />-- JeffBluebear Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05171345165563779232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-197988102951501877.post-19913564851374852442010-10-29T13:38:49.364-07:002010-10-29T13:38:49.364-07:00Thank you kindly, Martin. =) String thatch is a go...Thank you kindly, Martin. =) String thatch is a good method to use. The paper-spackle is something new I'm trying out. <br /><br />I did make a small steam launch (see earlier post) in the African Queen style. My planned steamboat may be either "Saffieh" class as used on the Gordon Relief Expedition, or a "Heart of Darkness" style steamer. I'll see what the portents say. ;)A Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834159033854153921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-197988102951501877.post-17014846878764490222010-10-29T10:53:11.950-07:002010-10-29T10:53:11.950-07:00Hi A.J.,

Ha, ha!<br /><br /> I've had pretty good luck using string cut into appropriate lengths, glued to the card roof in layers, then painted a straw color to represent thatch.<br /><br /> Looking forward to seeing how the steamboat turns out. Are we talking "African Queen" size or something bigger?Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440393996804815125noreply@blogger.com
