Hello from Dundas Ontario

[Paul Le Wol]

It’s been over 30 years since I built my model ships. Both were Billings Boats.  One The Bohuslan and the other The Bluenose.  That is way too long between builds. Recently I purchased a Cheerful package from Syren.  Hoping to soon have some content to share with the community.

 Paul, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard and I look forward to seeing your work on the Cheerful in a build log.

Welcome aboard, Paul. Check out the Marine Modellers of Niagara in the 'clubs' section of MSW.

[Paul Le Wol]

Hey guys, thanks very much for the welcome. It feels good to be here.

[Paul Le Wol]

Thanks for the welcome Mark. There certainly is a lot to check out here that’s for sure.

Hello Paul, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'.

 

Coincidentally, Dundas, New South Wales, is only a few kilometers down the road from me.

Thank you John. I hope everything is good down there. And I bet that your Dundas is just as nice as my Dundas. I can’t put my finger on it but there’s  just something about Dundases ( if that’s a word )

Welcome to MSW Paul.

I understand there is a great modelling club in the Hamilton area (Confederation Marine Modellers) and then ours down in the Niagara Region (Model Shipwrights of Niagara) if your looking for a monthly connection!

[Paul Le Wol]

Thank you for the welcome Alan. I will certainly look into the local clubs.

Welcome Paul!  I grew up in Dundas.  A beautiful town.   Dundas trivia For the benefit of other readers, Dundas had a significant greenhouse operation up until the 1990s which exported cacti around the world.   Billing itself as Canada’s Cactus Capital  the summertime Cactus Festival was always a fun time.

Hi Patrick and Haliburton, thank you both for your welcomes to MSW. I agree Haliburton  , Dundas has a rich history of shipping, canals, and commerce. Interesting place.
