Title: My Builds
Post by: shipwright65 on April 03, 2009, 02:24:37 am

Hi all.
I'm currently building 3 models at the same time. (sucker for punishment).
1. I'm building the Hachett Build the bismarch currently at the first layer of planking
2. scratch building a modified Typhoon Submarine. this is also in the planking stage and should see some fibreglass before too long
3. and finally a scratch built schooner again at the planking stage.

I'm doing all of this with my young son (13).

its all a bit new for me working is such small fashion as I'm more used to the big stuff, so its a bit of a learning curve working in miniature.
I'm looking forward to sharing my progress with you guys

 :-)

Hi Shipwright

Welcome aboard, and we look forward to seeing more on your three projects.

If you want to show your builds to their best, and so more people enjoy them, can I suggest you do three threads. If you get comments on three separate builds in one thread, it will get confusing very quickly.

Title each thread with the name of the build, for example 'Modified Typhoon Sub Build'.
'My Builds' is too generic as there are so many builds on here, and people will not be able to find your build easily in the future.

Good building

Thanks Mark, I'll move onto seperate threads for each build. this forum stuff is brand new to me so will need pleanty of guidance along the way.
