Amazing work, Dave.
Love it a lot.
Crazy amazing work!
At that speed of construction, it's a good job you were not working for the Germans in the real war Dave.

Good lord, Dave... I think I feel a swoon coming on.
So there always has to be the first pancake off the griddle, the one that paves the way for the rest . . . Front gondola set in place, check!
Rear gondola, outriggers, and drive shafts . . . check, check, check!
Top gun placement - check!
Step back and look it all over from every aspect to insure alignment and placement, check!
Liking the disks for props idea . . . gives the illusion of motion, which is a good thing . . .
Now for the rest of the batch, it will be a long night! Stay tuned . . .
Amazing work, David.
You're the Henry Ford of the Aerodrome (Lincoln Division)
Stunning work. You are getting better and better, David.
Truly, truly incredible. The level of your industry is amazing. Well done Sir. Salute! Rep on it's way and well deserved.
Zeps upgraded. Very cool.

Where on earth did you find those Dave?

Love that there are three poses that work well on a upper gun station on a Zepperlin, some shoot high, low and down!
David,
Being late to the game, I am just now discovering your craftsmanship. Absolutely stunning.
Tim
So close now!
Are you making these for sale? They are awesome.
Ken, have a look here:

Voilŕ le soleil d'Austerlitz!
This seems interesting. A big difference in game play?
Hi David...PM sent concerning your Zepps. Thanks.
They are here! The boxes have arrived and are beginning to make their volume known . . .
They also arrived with 70 of these curious tubes, what to make of them? Another story in the wings . . .
Meanwhile the brain is addressing the possible shipping war, must keep them safe and light for shipping costs . . .
Nearly there . . .
These fancy boxes will make good storage and transport to the war zones . . .
Number 15 gets a trial run on the hydrogen "venting" covering, kinda groovy!
This fun never seems to end!
Will need to take a 1100 mile drive north this week for someone's 3rd birthday! Will be getting the master list and info posted next week! Cheers!
Quite the production!
Enjoy the birthday, Dave. I'll be here, camping on the thread in anticipation.
Dave, you need to get that young pilot some WWI coloring book material. It's never too early to start! :-)
Zeppelin update: After returning from the great north I have the boxes and packing sorted and we are close to the big push, then I had another series of seizures this week which have been a challenge to overcome. My vision and mental focus is coming back and I hope to have more strength ahead to post the sales list and details on the for sale thread next week, stay tuned!
Take it easy and get some rest Dave.
Take good care of yourself Dave.
Everything else can wait.
Your health comes first.
Here's hoping that your 'balance' returns to 'normal' soon, Dave...
Do take care - we'll still be here wanting to own one of those beauties when you're ready.
Always the best,
Matt
Pleased to hear that you're on the mend, Dave... and the Zeps look terrific!
Firstly sorry to hear of your setback Dave, and secondly to endorse what has been said.
Take it steady and don't overdo things. You are worth far more to us and your family than a bunch of Zeps.

Yes take care Dave, but I bet it was worth the trip to see the Kiddiewink.

You are the one person I expected to notice, lets see if any one else does . . .
Yes, why the reversed colors on the one?
OK, I will come clean, it was the elves. They got into my G & T supply and before I could stop them they had already painted one the weird way - but this is not the first time, there is another flipped color pattern out there in the land of Zeppelins, not sure who ordered it, but now it has a bigger twin . . .
Glad to hear you are on the mend Dave.
