GAStan Posted November 21, 2021 Share #1 Posted November 21, 2021 Been a member here for a bit and just realized I hadn't said Howdy. I actually started building boats as a teenager. I completed a plastic model of the USS Constitution and did the rigging on a Cutty Sark for an uncle that built the model but after about 2 lines decided that wasn't for him. Then I joined the USMC and life happened. Now I'm back to model ships. Currently I'm building a Galleon from Disar Models. So far the build is going well and I'm really enjoying it.
