Dirk, great to see you've started a build log. There is a search function top right, if you search "Marie Jeanne" you'll see several build logs of the MJ, I've attached one as an example though it is a Artesania Latina kit and not a Billings Boat kit but you'll see several MJ BB build logs. Please take a look through those build logs and you'll see how others handled points in their builds that you may have questions about.- 18 replies

Dirk, welcome to MSW. The very best to you in finishing your dad's Regina.

Steven, what a fantastic build. I'm kicking myself for missing your project from the start. Please consider all previous updates a big thumbs up. It seems a shame to paint her, the look of the raw steel is beautiful!

Thank you, Lynn. Brother Tom has an overactive imagination but he's forgiven as Mother always loved him best. Thank you, Phil Tom, thank you. About all those stories, you need lay off those brownies from Jane next door, I warned you about her. Gary, thank you. I enjoy playing dress up with my baby. Thank you, Brian. I'd love to see you take on one of the ships from the transitional period. You could take a POB kit of a ship that closely measures to that of the ship you want to replicate, build the hull, and then bash it from the deck up. There are so many neat ships from that period and are so underrepresented. Simon, thank you, you're too kind. You are doing a bang-up job with your dad's Cutty Sark, I always enjoy your updates. To all, thank you for your comments and likes. Each of you are the wind in my sails. I removed the yards from the mast and poly coated them and they dry as we speak. The Tennessee looks naked and a bit ugly without them. Funny how soon we forget. To all my dear MSW family, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and may God bless each of you and your families.......Keith

One of the proposed alternatives to the Panama Canal

You might be able to squeeze it all in using TT scale (1:120) and still save your sanity though 1:120 can be a bit maddening at times. -

When your life depends on how well a personal weapon functions, you trust only yourself to keep it maintained.

Roger, I don't think keeping the rifles serviceable would have been an issue. I would think that each rifle in the rack was issued to a particular sailor and that each day/night they had to clean their rifles for daily inspection.

Eberhard, incredible, just incredible. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours.

Simon, welcome to MSW. Get settled in, enjoy the sights, and in time you'll find your niche.

Frank, you need to introduce yourself in your 'own new member introduction' where everyone has an opportunity to meet you, learn something about you, and welcome you aboard.

Glen, I've got years of experience researching and working on one ship, the Tennessee. I've somewhat educated myself to model ship building by going through as many MSW build logs as possible during my time as a MSW member.

Ray, welcome to MSW. I hope you'll start a build log for the Victory where we can follow along.

Jay, welcome to MSW.

Glen, just getting to your SIB and sips party, sorry for being late. I'll pull up a chair over here in the corner and follow along. Please consider all previous post a 'thumbs up'.
