New to Forum. Hi from Pa.

Have been building all types of models for about 55 years. Plastic and wood boats, planes, cars, trains and armour. Built, sailed and raced R/C sailboats for about 20 years. Last 10 years,stuck to plastic and wood Tall Ships. Completed plastic HMS Victory out of box with upgraded fittings, sails and rigging in 2000. Completed wooden Italian kit of the "Scottish Maid" with upgraded fittings and some scratchbuilt parts in 2005. Have several kits in the works including the USS Kearsarge. Also working on an old "One day I'll build it" finally. Its an R/C version of the Emma C. Berry but I'm building it as a scale version of the original that's up in Mystic Seaport. Don't build anywhere near as good as some of those in the magazine but each project gets a little bit better.
