Leia Posted September 21, 2019 #1 Posted September 21, 2019 Hi, my name is Leia. Years ago I used to build decorative models from scratch, and I built a real sail boat in high school. I'm here now to get help restoring a pond yacht a customer brought me for repair. The research has also inspired me to repair my last decorative model, damaged by my old cat who thought the spars would be fun to chew on. I'm really looking forward to seeing what everyone is working on here!! mtaylor and JeffT 2 Quote
