fltguy Posted February 12, 2021 #1 Posted February 12, 2021 Just ordered my BlueJacket Maine Lobster Boat, Red Baron. As an avid Isle au Haut, Maine vacationer, I finally have the opportunity to work on a lobster boat. Enjoying the opportunity to learn from those craftsman that have built models and meticulously displayed their build progress. mtaylor, Duanelaker, JeffT and 2 others 5 Quote

Louie da fly Posted February 12, 2021 #4 Posted February 12, 2021 Welcome to MSW, Fltguy! Don't forget to start a build log of your own. Just as those of others have been of use to you, the solutions you come up with to the problems you face in the build may well be useful to those who come after you. And it's also a great way for other members to give you help and advice as you travel on your journey. The instructions are here: https://modelshipworld.com/topic/24705-before-you-post-your-build-log-please-read-this-starting-and-naming-your-build-log/ Good to have you aboard!

MEDDO Posted February 14, 2021 #8 Posted February 14, 2021 Welcome to MSW!!! As @Louie da fly mentioned above please start a build log as it really is a great way to get to know everyone and show your work and ask questions. I would also like to invite you to check out our Ohio modeling club. Shipwrights of Ohio (formally known as Shipwrights of Central Ohio) has its home base just north of Columbus. We meet the 3rd sat morning usually at the Westerville public library but as that is no longer an option in COVID-times we are holding zoom meetings instead. We have members from all over Ohio who participate. If interested you can pm me or @Feathermerchant our president. mtaylor 1 Quote Michael Shipwrights of Ohio Current Build: ... Completed Builds: Queen Anne Barge - Syren, Pinnace - MS, Halifax 1768 - LSS, Murrelet - Pygmy, Swift 1805 - AL
