RSmith Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Hi everyone, I’m new to building ships in a bottle. Hope to learn a lot on here, because as of right now I don’t know where to start. I do have woodworking experience though, I’ve been building scale model vehicles for years. But I’ve been wanting to Build a ship in a bottle for a while. I’ve gotten burned out on building scale vehicles, so I figured what better time to change things up and start building these for a change. i look forward to this new hobby and getting to know you all.

RSmith Posted December 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 Thanks again for the welcome guys. I found the “how to build a Bermuda sloop for beginners” log by DSiemens. I’m reading thru it now, then I’m going to go back and try my hand at it. Thanks for the encouragement Bruce Foxworthy really appreciate it.
