For the past decade I have taken part in Worldwide PinHole photography Day and the plan was take a nice harbour shot who said the best plans can always come unstuck, well mine did , after so many years sitting in the front room and not seeing the light of day I wasn't sure if the sails could handle the harbour..so the whole venture was cancelled.
Been viewing for some time. So I thought I had better make a posting

It's always a pleasure to meet new folks and view their work! The barge is wonderful and keep those pix coming of the Bluebird of Chelsea.

I have been a keen model maker for many years, I guess My first model was made from a scrap of timber carved with a blunt penknife the year must have been the the very late 1940s .
Because of a slight medical problem, I have curtailed using power tools in the shed and have started making a small-scale RC boat using a 3D printer that was a hand me down from my son, the boat in question is the 'Bluebird of Chelsea' this was a cruiser built for the English speed ace Donalad Campbell.
The results are nowhere as good a scratch building, but it's a good learning curve, looks like you can teach an old dog new tricks Col.
I could post my progress snaps if anyone is interested
Ps I hope this posting is in the correct place.
