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

Default Model Shipways Essex Instruction Book
A while back I offered to send a copy of Jim Robert's out of print Essex instruction book to any interested Essex modeler. I recently had a request and it occurred to me that I could leisurely scan the pages and email them faster than one could actually get through the steps. So, bottom line: If any one wants these pages please send me an email and I would be pleased to email the pages as I copy them.
