    Never believe the label on a product is totally true, and while some resins are called safe when cured and others aren't is suspect.

    Either way just be careful when you grind them.

    How do you boys take the skin off your boats? I use a heat gun and a open window and never grind if I can.

    So who gets it? I'm totally oblivious as to who's right or wrong.

    You can go ahead Beaver. I think the moral here is to use proper PPE (personal protective equipment) for whatever one you might use, because they are all dangerous in their own way.

    Aright, here is today's question.

    What do these three ships have in common other than that they were sunk, and that they all were part of the Bismark chase?

    DKM Bismark

    HMS Cossak

    HMS Ark Royal

    They all have the letter 'k' in their name?

    They were all torpedoed?

    They all fought in WW2?

    They were all ships?

    They had sailors on board?

    Though those are good answers, they're not what I had in mind. Keep guessing!

    Ok, Nick, I'll give it to you. They were all the home of Unsinkable Sam, AKA Oscar the cat.

    You're up.

    If nobody minds, I'll throw up the next question. Can you name the only US Navy destroyer to have the following dimensions and armament? This ship was 440’ 3” long with a beam of 38’ 1” with 8 X 4”/65 guns, 37 X 25mm anti aircraft guns and 4 X 13mm anti aircraft guns?

    I see there's no action on my trivia challenge so I'll update it a bit.
