Hello Guest! There's a lot to look over, so sit back with a cup of coffee, relax and browse around. We have a great group of ship and boat modelers here, both newbies and old salts, from all over the world. Our goal here is to help each other, without criticism or rebuke. Both newbies and old salts alike can learn from each other. No one has all the answers. Our most basic rule is simple, respect for your fellow members and their opinions. And don't take yourself too seriously! wirewolf (John, AKA - Cap), Forum Administrator

Re: HMS Endeavour AL 1981

Life wasn't meant to be easy. I had cut out all the die-cut frames for the long boat and assumed that all I would have to do is sand the rough edges before fitting to the hull. It wasn't until I...
