Soleil Royal by Heller - an Extensive Modification and Partial Scratch-Build by Hubac’s Historian

I would pre-order first:). Such amount of information in one book without having to look through hundred of different post and topics is worthy to be sold in Musee de La Marine. I have no doubt you possess skill to make such grand model. If you don't make this book before you pass away at least pass the notes to somebody who willROTF
 
WOW - I’m stunned! My friend Eric, and I were puzzling over what exactly was going on with the MSW site. It is fairly astonishing to say the least. My friend, Dan Pariser, forwarded the following to our club:

What a loss to the community, at large - and not merely for my contributions, obviously, but for the amazing work of so many talented people. And one has to wonder: to what end? For what purpose?

I am also glad that I created a log on this site. At some point, when MSW is up and running again. I will restart the log from where the project is now. I will include a photo montage of it’s development, but I do not have any backup of the log, and I will not reconstruct it.

That’s all just incredibly disappointing. SMH at the world today.
Thanks God and Internet Archive, at least there is a backup dated January 22, 2026

This one, isn't it yours?

It is, indeed, but when I get into the log and try to navigate to the second page, this is the screen I come to:
Yes, indeed! Bad luck! :oops: Probably, MSW was blocking robots or WebArchive was taking only specific pages - honestly, I don't know.

But you can click to search all available pages starting with your main page link. There were 83 links, some of them were useless, but I was able to get at least one page:

Page 64

At least it is something worth trying for you and others. Good luck to anyone who decides to try!
