  1. Thank you, Eberhard and a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours.
  2. Fenris, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  3. Terry, the best way to attach would be CA gel (super glue) IMHO. Make sure all is right before dabbing the plastic deck with the CA gel and then applying the wood deck. As far as decoration please resist adding treenails (trunnels/wooden pegs) with a pointed pencil. At scale one wouldn't see the wooden pegs. As far a staining or painting that's up to you the captain.
  4. Welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  5. I don't know, David. Keith continues sawing up the dinning room furniture, the house remodeling project is done, and now Ann has received her 50th Wedding Anniversary present, what's to make her want to keep him about underfoot? In all seriousness, Keith. Congratulations on your's and Ann's 50th wedding anniversary. One of life's major milestones.
  6. Congratulations on completing a another fine card model, Phil.
  7. Ellie, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  8. Lovey as always, Keith. And a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours.
  9. For the railroad buffs in the group... there is also L.I.R.R. ANNEX BOAT painted on the lower front of the Pier 13 building. The below Wikipedia link that goes into the Long Island Railroad history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Long_Island_Rail_Road The history of the Montauk Steamboat Company and the history of the Long Island Railroad connection and their connection is a fascinating rabbit hole to explore but enough of this rabbit hole, I should finish Billy's bow today.
  10. Andy, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  11. Terry, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  12. Wowie kazowie! Congratulations on completing this beautiful build of the Caroline N, Brian, I very much look forward to your next project.
  13. Thank you, John. Further information.....I noticed the sign "Montauk Steam" and thought what the heck, let me look that up and to my delighted surprise the following came up on Wikipedia. What a great thing the internet can be! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montauk_Steamboat_Company The Montauk Steamboat Company, Ltd. was located at Pier 13, East River, New York City, US. It was established in 1853.[1] It operated steamboats between New York City and the eastern end of Long Island. The boats ran along the north shore of Long Island. There were also steamboats to Block Island, Rhode Island where connections were made with Providence and Newport.[2] Henry Francis Cook was its president;[3] David Van Cleaf was its superintendent.[1] The company was sold to the Long Island Rail Road Company in 1899 after a deal was struck with Joseph Fahys & Co. who held the majority stock in the steamboat company.[4] The company office was later moved to Long Island City, Queens, New York.[5]
  14. Welcome to MSW. Great looking model, glad to have you aboard.
  15. One of the side benefits of doing research is coming across great historical images. The following photo was taken in New York Harbor and has nothing to do with Billy but is a fantastic image full of rich detail being perfect for those who want or are trying to replicate the past.
  16. She's starting to come alive, Bob. Thank you and a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you, Mrs Knocklouder and all the little Knocklouders.
  17. Very nice, George. Hope you and yours have a wonderful Holiday and I hope your canine child comes through surgery okay.
  18. That last photo is absolutely stunning, John. It sounds like you've become the star attraction.
  19. Each new post is so doggone impressive, Paul. Your work is always beautifully done. 👍
