Dear All,
Out of interest, do we have any lady members actively building models? - or are we only a male preserve?! Just curious.

Umi is an active builder.. and a very good one too!.. O0
Mrs Toes isnt a builder, but enjoys running some of my boats :-))

Umi is in the USA. She actually runs a model making business and makes superb architectural models (as well as other work). She is a boat builder par excellence and a great engineer. Above all she is generous with her advice and experience.
We also have a very active, youger, female Member. She and her Dad both build models and she has won prizes.
I am also aware of several females who contribute to the Forum but I know nothing of their building efforts.

If your reffering to Hannahs springer,a very well deserved prize,lovely looking boat.
Umi's work is superb and she is generous with her tips.
Cant say that i have seen other female members boats,but the time they let us "play" on them
should be credited.

Mrs Walrus here. I do not claim to build model boats but I do enjoy sailing them and have proved to be helpful when sails ot fenders are needed for some of the models.
-
Mrs Walrus not only does a neat set of sails but she also does the other soft furnishuings such as awnings and seats as well as a pretty tidy sail storage bag. Not to mention running rings around a lot of us in any sailing competition!!!!

Mrs Damien here, I collect Dolls & Doll houses and knit for charity, to raise funds for wool I was Crocheting Bow and side fenders for Tugs sold a few sets to Mayhemers. I'm currently working on 12 side fenders for Damien's Lady Jo seaport tug conversion.
