Wacom Posted July 27, 2019 #1 Posted July 27, 2019 Joined up a couple of weeks ago so thought I had better say Hi. A life long modeller building models ranging from ships to helicopters. Since retiring I have kept busy building a live steam traction engine. This project should be finished in 18 months or so, in the meantime I am indulging in researching which ship kit to see me into my dotage (a few years yet I hope) A Chris Hatton design seems t be the front runner at present.
