Reformed modeler from Mississippi USA

A happy New Years to all. Thanks to one of your fellow modelers I have reopened the shipyard after many years. I was a member of Model Shipwrights and this previous site many years ago. Currently working on the Confederacy from Model Shipways. The talent I have seen on the current build logs is inspiring and daunting at the same time! 

 

I retired 2 years ago so now have the time to indulge in my hobbies of leatherwork, woodwork, 1/32 scale WWI aircraft and now sailing ships. That is when I am not taking care of horses and fishing. How did I ever find time for making a living. My past ship builds are the Royal Louis and Royal Caroline. I have forgotten the makers of these two kits. Also a scratch built Gunboat Philadelphia. 

 

Im looking forward to learning from this group and participating. All the best,

 

Mark “Bossman”

Current build: Model Shipways “Confederacy “

 

Completed builds:

Mamoli “Royal Louis“

Mantua “Royal Caroline”

Scratch 1/4 scale gondola “Philadelphia”

Scratch “Hannah” from Hahn plans.

Welcome to MSW.   Feel free to start a build log as it's a great way to get help and make friends.
