Title: Hi from the South West UK
Post by: Spiders on March 06, 2009, 08:57:46 AM

Hi, I am Glenn or if you like the sods Spiders ;)  I have been away from modelling for 20 plus years, yet recently bought the Billing Boats Wasa a POF kit not for the faint hearted.  Not much to do with paddle boats I know yet am waiting for a Schreiber card kit of the Wurttemburg 1/100 from marcle.co.uk.  With this kit I hope to transform it into a 1/50 fibre glass hull, plasticard with metal and wood fittings with some sort of power unit for R/C.

Welcome to Paddleducks Glenn, good to have you with us!

I hope you'll post a detailed build report on the Wurttemburg when you make a start? And remember that we're here to give help and advice if it's needed...

Regards
Eddy

 Spider, I am in Devon and sail at Crealy park Exeter or Youngs park Goodrington. Like you I had not built a model for 20 year, until 2001 when a hart attack, made me give up stock car racing. Some of my models can be seen on my album R.G.Y.
