  1. I agree, Roger. I would think one would need to have a discussion with the seller to try and establish provenance and make sure no laws were/have been broken. I see field pieces come up for sale but this is the first "real" ships' cannon I've seen for sale. Who ever made the carriage did a nice job. In today's world that's got to be worth at least $500.00 to $750.00
  2. British cannon supposedly recovered from a river on reproduction carriage for $2,500.00 located here in Michigan. https://www.roadsidemetamora.com/product-page/1780-s-british-insurance-cannon-w-vintage-handmade-carriage
  3. Lorraine, welcome to MSW. You did such a grand job on the Wasa hull it's a shame you couldn't finish her. Rob has been away awhile, hopefully he returns to once again work toward completing the model you started.
  4. PS21, welcome to MSW. Love your vocation. Glad to have you aboard.
  5. Painting a .008 rubbing strake freehand makes my eyes hurt. Considering the jolly boat's size, Eberhard, it looks absolutely amazing! Great job.
  6. Guy, please do. I'm pleased that you would consider doing so.
  7. Guy, unfortunately Paul (whom I considered a true friend) has been MIA for over two years. I diligently searched any and all connections in the UK to Paul that I could conceive of but to no avail. In my heart I feel Paul has passed on and as difficult as it is I've made peace with Paul being no longer with us.
  8. Jim, welcome to MSW. is there a time period that you have a particular interest in? Glad to have you aboard.
  9. Tim, the images are fine. Leave as is, the bigger the image the easier to see detail. I dislike small images taken with a phone, you can't make out detail for diddly.
  10. VB, welcome to MSW. We lived in Egegik for nine years. Glad to have you aboard.
  11. Valeriy, will the model be displayed open or in a case?
  12. Fantastic work/presentation, Glen. I think this one is the pick of the litter.
  13. Tim, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  14. Andre, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  15. Will, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  16. Eve turned out really really nice. I'm sure Captain Bean will have fond memories of her evermore.
  17. Ray, welcome to MSW. Great looking models. Glad to have you aboard.
  18. David, welcome to MSW. I look forward to seeing your work. Glad to have you aboard.
  19. Organization is the tool of the Devil. I got organized once and couldn't find anything till I got disorganized again.
  20. BG, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  21. Glen, she looks terrific. You know, had the ships' boats been attached before going through the neck things may not have folded up enough to get everything through. It all worked out for the best and it all looks great.
  22. Brian, what a drop dead gorgeous build, congratulations! After seeing the Cairo mounted to the base I can't imagine better, they fit each other perfectly. What a great journey, I enjoyed every post. Thank you for the ride.
