Received the optivisor today , I was a little worried after reading some of the amazon reviews. Many stated the lenses fall off and unit was heavy . Well after using it for a couple hour today I didn't have any problems with the lenses if anything I thought they locked in rather well and as for weight I used lithium batteries as they are about half the wieght as regular batteries and found it very comfortable and I do like that I can wear my glasses under them

Derek C got a reaction from Seventynet in Hello i'm new here and to ship building
Hello everyone
i am new here and just started my first build a week or so ago I am doing a 18th century longboat I got from Model ship ways I wanted something small to see if I truly was going to enjoy it . So far I have found it very relaxing, it takes my mind away from work once I'm home . Once I finish this one I would like to slowly progress to something a little harder and detailed I would love some suggestions. If I can figure it out I will post my progress as I go so I can get some expert feedback and criticism. Thanks

Hello
I started this longboat about a week ago , I am new to building model boats . I can't really rate the kit I got from MODEL SHIPWAYS , as this is the first one I have ever saw but I have not had a problem with anything yet and the instructions seem pretty straightforward there has been a few times I have had to read it over but that's probably cause I'm a newbie. Here are the photos of what I have got accomplished on it so far . I hope to finish hull by the weekend I will cheat and use the printed frieze under the top rail because it's to small and I'm not the best painter but I'm working on it lol will post finished hull over weekend,
