I am currently in hospital, which is really boring so I got my wife to bring me in a kit from my stash I could do. This is an all metal kit that requires no glue or painting I'll post about it as I complete each section. This is unboxing.  |

What people don't realise about tower bridge if it's actually 3 bridges not one bridge. It's a bascule bridge in the middle with a suspension bridge on either end. This is the first road deck with suspension cables done.  |

I'm just like you Steve. I'd be going bonkers in a hospital and would need something like this to do. Great work man. Coming together rather nicely.
