Hello all;
I have resurrected a Billing Boat Cutty Sark 1:75 kit that I purchased in the '70s along with the brass accessories. I managed to get the hull planked and then realized that this project was WAY beyond my abilities
I have moved at least 10 time since I purchased this kit and finally at age 84+, I've decided to try and complete the project.
I now have the Internet, this Website as well as an adult son to help.

I look forward to reviewing Build logs here and getting answer to so many questions

it looks great so far ! Just take it one step at a time. Don't get overwhelmed by all the different things that still need to be done. :)
 
I think there is great many of us on this site that have at least one model or two started with best intentions many many years ago and when a busy life finally allows time for one’s self time they are revisited and the spark reignited…good luck, looks good …and be wary, could very likely lead to many more arriving on your shelves…
