In ten months over 2013-14, I built GPM's 1:200-scale DKM Bismarck paper model. Since late 2014, it has been on display in the reading room at my local public library. This year, the library will undergo extensive remodeling, and the shelf where my ship sat will be removed. So, in a very nice letter, the new library director expressed appreciation of my craftsmanship and my generosity in lending the model to the library, and asked me to remove it. After spending a couple of weeks trying to figure where to put it, my wife Christal and I finally found a practical and prominent (and temporary?) place for it in our living room, where it can stay indefinitely. If I can find another library or museum that would like to display it, it might move again. In the meantime, it's nice to have it at home where we and visitors can enjoy it.
