Hi (again) to everyone….. I cannot believe I have hidden away for 2 years!!!! I was distracted by restoring antique writing slopes, learning 3-D CAD and mastering 3-D Printing. However seeing my last model every day, finding my research, old plans and even the keel and some other fabricated parts safely stored in a box I am resolved to get back into wooden boat models and participate in this excellent and friendly form.

So give me a few weeks to sort my stuff out and I will be easing my way back into the hobby all be it very embarrassed!!!!

Not long ago I joined Velvet Spins Casino, and I’m glad I did. The casino has a big selection of fun slot machines, great promotions, and everything works smoothly. Playing here in Australia has been safe, simple, and really entertaining. I definitely recommend giving it a try. Good luck playing here!
Welcome back!
 
Thank you all for your replies. After using the “Introduce Yourself” thread? I will now post on the SOS build logs from sketch or plans. My earlier escapades are detailed there!

Glad you could rejoin us, welcome! I have hiatuses too. Building models can be very intensive and taxing, sometimes boring making identical parts over and over, etc. Sometimes we need a break...

However, I have never lost the passion to start a new ship model!
