willwilco Posted June 17, 2017 Share #1 Posted June 17, 2017 I joined a few years back but have been away from building until just recently. I am hoping to get back to building my Model Shipways Fair American again soon. Jeff mtaylor, Eddie and MEDDO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dilbert55 Posted June 17, 2017 Share #4 Posted June 17, 2017 Welcome back Jeff, why not give us a picture of your Fair American as she is now, then start a Build Log for the remainder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willwilco Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share #5 Posted June 17, 2017 Will do, but I think that the forum that used to be Model Shipworld.net had my build. Is that this forum now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dilbert55 Posted June 17, 2017 Share #6 Posted June 17, 2017 Not sure, only been a member for 3 years. Can't believe there is another model ship forum with more credentials than the collective memberships here has. There are some mind-blowing builds in this forum.

ccoyle Posted June 17, 2017 Share #7 Posted June 17, 2017 This is actually MSW 2.0. If you've been away for a few years, then you probably missed the Great Crash a couple years back. All the content was lost. Hard to tell by looking around now, isn't it? mtaylor 1 Quote Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot.
