Boydie Posted December 19, 2021 Share #1 Posted December 19, 2021 Thought it would be best to introduce myself, I'm Boydie from near Edinburgh. I'm a former Marine Engineer in the Merchant Navy, now I'm a Multi Skilled Engineer in the food manufacturing industry; maintenance, installation of new production lines, robots ect. I've been building models for a while, I'm currently building HMS King George IV 1/350, it's been on hold for a few months due to buying a house and decorating it. But I think I've made enough progress with this to treat myself in restarting the build. So I thought I'd keep a build log to keep myself motivated and maybe learn a few new tricks on the way. Looking forward to meeting you all. 😀 AJohnson, ccoyle, Keith Black and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
