Hello from Freehold NJ


Recommended Posts

Hello, I joined a while back but haven't posted. I am a scratch builder having completed Badger 1777 Nelson's first command and am currently working on L'Unite 1796 which served as his flag ship on his way to take command of the Mediterranean fleet. Both are 1/48 scale. I do plank on bulkhead and am rather slow. Currently I'm  2 1/2 years into the L'Unite and am working on the main wale which I'm doing in ebony. I like to keep everything in natural wood. I like to tree-nail everything and I try not to use anything prefabricated. Well, that's my story.

Thank you for the kind words. I put pictures of the Badger in the completed scratch build section if you want to see more.
