<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AussieCollector, post: 4331969, member: 81093&quot;]Another update, and hopefully some closure.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was with much trepidation that I prepped for this. Even though it&#039;s all reversible, I was hoping I wouldn&#039;t have to. I was also hoping the skills I learned from putting together all those 1/600 and 1/700 WWII naval ships would finally come in handy (particularly from when I had to work with superglue to attach those tiny ladders and details).</p><p><br /></p><p>I prepared like I always did, with a plastic lid and pin.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1098948[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>With a shaky hand, that was surely due to too much coffee, I set to work, piece by piece, trying to quickly attach so I could move onto the next piece and still have some &quot;wriggle adjustments&quot; if necessary.</p><p><br /></p><p>It turns out those hours spent on naval models weren&#039;t wasted, I was building life skills <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1098949[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Complete (as it can be), in all it&#039;s glory:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1098951[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>And finally, I had to make sure it had it&#039;s descriptor was completed and in theme with the rest of the coins in the collection.
