Hank Posted July 12, 2019 Author #187 Posted July 12, 2019 Popeye, My project at hand is actually converting a shed to a model workshop. THEN the shipbuilding will continue! Kevin, Ditto - got to have a PLACE to build things and right now that's not the case. I'll happen, it's just going to take $/time.
