All that was left to do now was glue and hang my boats. I glues them with a 2 part epoxy which is really strong and also horrendous to work with, I didn't anticipate at first that it doesnt really wash off so had to get it off my hands using vinegar. Safe to say I wore gloves after that. the whole ordeal was a bit of a faff with some fitting in perfectly and some having to be held balanced in ace while the glue set. In the end it took me a couple of days of solid glueing to get them all done but now they are glued and look fantastic and all i need to do is make a frame and then hang them. i think for my frame Im going to get some 1" by 1" (approximately) timber strips in whatever wood is cheepest, paint them white and stick some little hooks in them to tie y boats of to. each boat has twine coming off the front and back so that it wont spin when they're all hung up they should be perfectly still.

We're on the home straight now anyway.
