In English: Hi Doc, I have checked the water line. The next project is the Francis Drake, it arrived from DM at Christmas, now I am doing some research about the history of this ship. Bye and thanks for your translation.
@Mimmo: una nave interessante e un bel progetto, ti prego di fare un blog anche per questo - an interesting ship and a nice project, I beg you to start a blog for this one as well :)

In English: The new year has begun and I have finished my little adventure as best as I could, but unfortunately I cannot do the maiden voyage, but will do so as soon as possible.
Regards and thanks for your patience

@ Mimmo: did you make a test in the bathtub? You will need a new project now during the lockdown.... Hai fatto una prova nella vasca da bagno? Hai bisogno di un progetto nuovo adesso durante il lockdown.... ;)

In English: First of all a Happy New Year to everbody and let us hope it will be better. Thanks Doc, all resolved, it was the batteries run flat. Unfortunately the cabin did not turn out too well but at least I gained some experience. Regards and thanks

Pima di tutto Buon Anno a tutti  e speriamo bene.
Grazie Doc ,tutto risolto, erano le batterie con potenza troppo bassa.
Purtroppo la cabina non è venuta tanto bene comunque è sempre esperienza.
Alla prossima e grazie

In English: Thanks Doc, to you and all the forum members best wishes for the new year
Some days ago I purchased 2 coin cells, a battery case and a searchlight, then I have contacted a friend who told me about resistors, Ohm and Volt. The result was not the best one as the light first was bright but then went darker, I think it would be better to use a Lithium cell of 1620/3 V instead of 3270.
Best regards

@Mimmo: forse sia meglio di redurre il voltaggio della batteria ‚normale‘ che usi per il motore e prendere un LED, vedi questo link per esempio

https://www.componentshop.co.uk/voltage-reducer.html

Maybe it would be better to use a voltage reducer from the main battery and a LED

Grazie Doc auguri anche a te e tutti del Forum sperando in buone nuove

Giorni fa mi sono procurato 2 pile a bottone  un porta bottoni ed un faretto  poi ho contattato un amico  che mi ha erudito su resistenze , OHM e V. .-
Il risultato non è stato dei migliori perchè la luce era prima forte poi si affievoliva,penso sia la batteria al Litium da 1620/3v invece di 3270 .

Alla prossima

in English: Here is the final repair, I have started to plank the inside of the cabin with veneer. I have leaned her against to see how it looks, what do you think of it?
Off topic: Best wishes for Christmas and the New Year -  Let us hope that 2021 will be better.

@Mimmo: Hai fatto bene! Buon Natale e felice Anno Nuovo!

In English: Good evening to all of you, here is some more little progress, as I had damaged the cabin but thanks to the advice of D.M. I was able to solve the problem almost completely, still have to do some finishing, in the meantime I have started to fix some bits.

Sera a tutti, ecco altri piccoli progressi, premetto che avevo danneggiato la cabina ma grazie ai consigli della D.M. ho quasi risolto perchè devo ancora fare qualche  rifinitura , nel frattempo ho iniziato a fissare gli accesori

In English: Some more small steps towards the end. Dry fit of accessories before painting, dry fit of the windows at the cabin top and fixing the glass of the windows.
@Mimmo: mi piace, hai fatto bene; I like it, well done ^^^

Altri piccoli passi verso la fine.
Prove accessori prima di dare il colore, prove finestre tetto cabina e sistemazione vetro finestre
Alla prossima

In English: Yes Doc, I have bought it online from a German supplier (I don‘t know if I am allowed to tell the brand) and it was quite cheap. It works very well and has velcro to fit the abrasive paper. For me it is convenient.

@Mimmo: mi sembra essere molto utile - it seems to be very useful ^^^l
