Good morning, everyone.
I am very grateful for accepting my request. After a long illness, I have decided to resume a hobby that I abandoned almost 35 years ago. I started with plastic model kits, but I always had a strong desire to delve into wooden models. Now that I have a little bit of time (not much), I have decided to embark on the construction of an 18th-century Spanish frigate with 22 cannons.
In my early days, I had a collection of magazines that provided a step-by-step guide for building the model, and they would eventually send you the blueprints. My mistake was lending them to a friend, and they never returned... but a few months ago, I found them again on a collectors' website and decided to buy them and start over.
I feel a bit apprehensive about starting, and I will need a lot of help. Right now, I am gathering all the manuals and tutorials I can find. Although I think I might get overwhelmed by so much information, especially considering my English is very rusty... but I am confident that I will receive unconditional support from all of you.
I hope to share the progress I make on the model and the helpful advice and instructions that you will provide.
Thank you very much.

Here are some photos I took on my first wood project, the bluenose. It's lying on a shelf and I'm already missing many sections of the sticks.
It is unfinished, but I will take it up again when I feel up to it.
Thank you very much.
