New member with novice experience (is that a thing?) in wooden model ship building. I've built plenty of plastic kits in the past, but am working on my first wooden kit now. Rather transient in nature; currently in Italy. 

 

I'm looking forward to doing a lot of reading and learning on this forum. Thanks in advance for sharing your wisdom and experience. 

 

Cheers!

Welcome to MSW! I wish you the best of luck on your builds and hope you enjoy wooden ships as much as plastic.
