mtaylor Posted December 25, 2017 Share #2 Posted December 25, 2017 Welcome to MSW Jaan, Do a search, and you'll find several build logs for your ship. I suggest using the "Advanced Search" and the key word "Surprise" and pick "Content titles only". Browse through the other sub-forums such as the Shop Notes..." as there is a wealth of knowledge here. When you're ready, open a build log as it's the best way to get help, encouragement, and also to help others.
