Editor’s Page

 

Note the following request from the Editor - she would be greatly pleased to have folks contribute articles to the journal.

 

Great News! We will be starting our “One Eyed Willy” contest again in the September issue of MSB Journal. The contest will be run quarterly so we don’t exhaust the goodwill of those kind sponsors who generously donate items for us to use as prizes.

 

Let me again make a request or two—if you enjoy the journal, spread the word among your friends and as always, I welcome any and all ideas, comments or articles. This journal has, and always will, depend on the readers to provide content. Do you have a favorite technique you use? Have you come up with a novel use for an item? Send it in—- if I get enough I can do a regular column on ‘tips and Techniques”, otherwise I can use them to fill in space at the end of articles.

 

Please send your articles or ideas for articles to

Winston@modelshipbuilder.com and put “MSB Article” in the subject line.

 

Until next time,

Ro
