Gracias por darme la bienvenida a este foro. Este texto fue traducido por Google; no hablo inglés. Soy de un pueblo de la provincia de Barcelona, España, y hace mucho tiempo que no me involucro en el mundo del modelismo. Hace bastante tiempo, practicaba vuelo con control por cable, construía coches todoterreno térmicos RC, cometas acrobáticas, drones RC, etc.

Ahora me gustaría iniciarme en el modelismo de barcos radiocontrolados, concretamente en la construcción de una lancha rápida Riva Aquarama a partir de planos.
Tengo un pequeño taller en casa. Me encanta hacer cosas con mis propias manos. Entre las herramientas que tengo se encuentran: un torno para metal de 50 cm de largo, una máquina CNC de 30x40 mm, una cortadora láser de 40x70 mm y 5,5 W, una cepilladora y maquinaria básica para trabajar la madera.
Soy mecánico de mantenimiento industrial, aunque estoy jubilado desde hace varios años. Eso es todo. Simplemente espero compartir mis humildes conocimientos y aprender de los veteranos.
Un cordial saludo a todos.
 
Thank you for welcoming me to this forum. This text was translated by Google; I don't speak English. I am from a town in the province of Barcelona, Spain, and it has been a long time since I got involved in the world of modeling. Quite a while ago, I practiced flying with cable control, I built RC thermal off-road cars, stunt kites, RC drones, etc.

Now I would like to get started in radio-controlled boat modeling, specifically in the construction of a Riva Aquarama speedboat from plans.
I have a small workshop at home. I love making things with my own hands. Among the tools I have are: a 50 cm long metal lathe, a 30x40 mm CNC machine, a 40x70 mm 5.5 W laser cutter, a planer and basic woodworking machinery.
I am an industrial maintenance mechanic, although I have been retired for several years. That's it. I simply hope to share my humble knowledge and learn from veterans.
A cordial greeting to all.
