irxum Posted January 11, 2017 #1 Posted January 11, 2017 Hi all. Account is very old but I haven't posted before now. I just started an experimental build log of HMS Surprise, using a 3D printed hull with scratchbuild fittings (hopefully I'll get that far). Cheers, Irxum PeteB, Robin Lous, KevinR and 3 others 6

irxum Posted January 12, 2017 Author #6 Posted January 12, 2017 (edited) Thanks all! I guess I registered the username before noticing people here use something closer to their real names... Edited January 12, 2017 by irxum mtaylor, EJ_L, geoff and 1 other 4
EJ_L Posted January 13, 2017 #7 Posted January 13, 2017 Welcome to MSW! I have seen a couple of excellent 3D builds on here now that were truly fascinating. They were of modern yachts though so I am very interested to see what you can do with an older ship like the Surprise. I will head over that way and follow along! As to your user name, you can call yourself what ever you would like. A lot of people though will put their first name down in their signature if they would prefer to have people use it. You can do whichever you feel most comfortable with. geoff, mtaylor, PeteB and 1 other 4 "A Smooth Sea NEVER made a Skilled Sailor" - John George Hermanson -E.J.
