Lost Thread

[Digger]

I need help finding a build log. I have looked but cannot find it. It was for HMS Norfolk, a sloop built on Norfolk Island in 1798. I cannot recall the name of the builder, but a comment under his name said "Gone but not forgotten". I think the build was about 2017. I would have liked to communicate with this gent, but I am assuming that the comment indicated that he is now a member of the modelling community in the next realm.

Hi,In 2017 we had a crash on the froum and lost lots of build logs as images were corrupted and we could not recover them so we had to remove those logs and the log you looking for could be one of those.

Thanks for the reply. However, there was mention made that through the efforts of (unk), this particular thread was re-created.

Was it the build log that was on MSW by Danny Davas, he built a model of the Norfolk, but it wasn't on SOS, hope this helps,
Danny passed on a couple of years ago and I know that under his Avatar it said, gone but not forgotten,

Best regards John,

I do believe that you have gotten it. I'm afraid that it did not even occur to me that it was another site. Thank you very much.

Thanks for the information. The photos are very useful. I am making plenty of mistakes as I build, but since I am learning from them, I consider my build a success, so far.

I think that post was post 2017 because I spacifically remember it because of the comment "Gone but not forgotten" and there haven't been any since that I can remember, and I joined in Oct. 2018, so it's quite possible that it was late 2018 that the comment was made.
