Hello
This old coot is a newbie who hails from Winnipeg Manitoba, Canada. I have always liked the paddle wheel riverboats so I am thinking about building a model to paddle around the local retention ponds with grandkids and to take to the model regatta when snowbirding.
Of course as a newbie I am doing tons of research right now to select best choice. This site seems to have just about everything I need for early research and to start planning. Love the build logs.
As I am a fairly competent woodworker I am thinking I will probably opt for scratch build, this way the inevitable mistakes won't end up ruining an expensive kit. The project will provider plenty to keep me occupied ( maybe more important than the finished product).
