CurtisF Posted October 27, 2018 #1 Posted October 27, 2018 Hello to all. I joined back in May but have been so busy with work that my introduction is now coming. I have built a lot of plastic models in the past and decided to try my hand at wooden ships. I find them fascinating. I live in Hollywood, Florida and recently purchased the 18th century Armed Longboat by Model Shipways. I hope to be starting a build log here soon and I will need all the help I can get. ccoyle, zappto, russ and 3 others 6

spars Posted October 28, 2018 #7 Posted October 28, 2018 Welcome. Take your time. It'll be worth it. I am waiting for my five year-old grandson to mature before we start a build. He's into Lego now. mtaylor 1
