  1. Scratchie, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  2. Keith, you could model the engines, boilers, and engine room components as a separate display. With your tool skills a steam engine model is right up your alley.
  3. Bruma, I think everything looks great! As the builder you're going to be much more aware of subtle building differences than we viewers.
  4. The Cangarda is an interesting and neat yacht but it's not the beauty Ena is. Ena's beautifully executed deck features and lounge look a lot like that of the Germania, IMHO.
  5. I'd love to see you build a steam yacht, Keith. I'd be more than happy to help you search for photos. Here's a pretty neat candidate. https://www.boatsales.com.au/editorial/details/ena-up-for-auction-51056/

  10. Lester, my apologies for hijacking your log.
  11. Steven, thank you for asking. Short answer is no. After posting the above the other day I put the Amelia on the worktable and thought to myself, I need to finish this project. So, after two and a half years of neglect I'm on a mission to finish her. I've sailed into the dreaded doldrums with the Tennessee so a change maybe just the ticket. A ragging debate is going on inside my head as I consider sails or no. I feel somewhat obligated to add sails as that is the way the model was finished. The original sails are rotten so new sails would have to be made. I'm not a big fan of sails as I think they hide a lot of the modeler's work. I would like to upgrade the rigging a tad with blocks (single only) but blocks weren't original to the model so that inner debate continues. Also, eyelets were not used, lines was simply tied off around nail heads. if I add blocks I would want to add eyelets as well. I welcome all thoughts and suggestions.........please.
  12. Juan, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  13. Lester, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard. You can view my restoration efforts on the same type of decorator model in the log below. Best of luck to you.
  14. That's awesome stuff, Simon. Way beyond the abilities of my old brain.
  15. Ross, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  16. SJI, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  17. Grant, I'm right there with you. I didn't discover Glen's latest till yesterday afternoon. I've got a old cowbell we need to tie around his MSW profile to help keep tabs on his activities.
