Model Steamship Scratch Build - Clyde Puffer 1m (40") Large RC Boat
More details of Boats at http://john-tom.com/
http://replicaplans.com/
Frame Kit Plans for the Clyde Puffer are available from www.ReplicaPlans.com and a build log and additional information is available at www.john-tom.com
The Clyde puffer is a type of small coal-fired and single-masted cargo ship, built mainly on the Forth and Clyde canal, and which provided a vital supply link around the west coast and Hebrides of Scotland.
Built between 1856 and 1939, these stumpy little steamboats characteristically had bluff bows, crew's quarters with table and cooking stove in the focsle, and a single mast with derrick in front of the large hold.
The funnel and ship's wheel stood aft above the engine room, followed by a small captain's cabin in the stern. Typically in the period 1856 to approximately 1905 the Clyde Puffer's wheel was still in the open, but later a wheelhouse was added aft of the funnel giving the puffers their distinctive image.
Their flat bottom allowed them to beach and unload at low tide, essential to supply remote settlements without suitable piers. Typical cargoes could include coal and furniture, with farm produce and gravel sometimes being brought back.

juvenile-water-monitor-under-the-house
A juvenile Water Monitor has taken up residence beneath our house in Bangkok - Lucky for me as I am a bit of a "David Attenborough-er"
Fed on Bacon and Chicken Breast fillet this baby will outgrow it's new home in the next few months but I am determined to see this fantastic creature survive infancy.
The Water Monitor, (Varanus salvator) is a large species of monitor lizard capable of growing to 2 metres (6.6 ft) in length, with the average size of most adults at 1.5 metres (4.9 ft) long.
Maximum weight of Varanus salvator can be over 25 kilograms (55 lb), but most are half that size.
Their body is muscular with a long, powerful, laterally compressed tail.
Water monitors are one of the most common monitor lizards found throughout Asia
In Thailand, the word Water Monitor or local word 'เหี้ย' (hia) is used as an insulting word for evil things including people with bad driving skills, men who have been unfaithful or people who win the lottery after only buying one ticket :)
Its name is also considered a word bringing a bad luck, so some people prefer to call them 'ตัวเงินตัวทอง' which means 'silver and gold' in Thai to avoid the jinx.
I know, I know, all my Thai friends will say I am crazy - but the monitors are just such amazing animals that I can not help it!!!!!!
