We are bringing the finished models of KEARSARGE and the REVENUE CUTTER, maybe ALABAMA and GEARING (WWII version) to the NRG convention in Mystic next week.

Thanks, guys.  As with all BJ kits, this is really a team effort.  I designed and built it, our laser wizard Billy and casting master Josh did their magic, and Nic (the boss) rigged it (I hate to rig!).

Hey Al,

Hi.  May I ask you about one of your folders on PhotoBucket?  MGB-86, ... is that the one which was destroyed by fire while going under restoration?

Well, to give you a feeling for size, the wooden lower section of the 11" DAHLGREN mount is 2.25" long.  There are 50 plus parts in each gun, mostly laser-cut bass.

Very good looking. Nice build too. Al you ought to put scaling  elements in a few of the photos. 

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

It came through fine on my Mac - and on my I-phone. Beautiful model.

Only one of the thumbnails came through for me.  I think a server somewhere in the path is struggling.
