Hi Zathros
Yes, I only build models of my own designs. I used to design ships professionally and in those days I used steel and aluminium. A couple of years ago I went on a pension and not having room for 4000 tons scrap metal in my back yard I went over to designing miniboats to my own designs - in meranti plywood mostly. The X200 is an original design for a stealth drone of 2400mm length which I will shortly be starting to build. Recently I became interested in designing boats using cardboard and polyester and since I already have most of the drawings for the original X200, decided to make a scaled down version for cardboard and polyester. I have not built a boat out of cardboard before so it is very interesting - and may I say more fun than I had expected.
What about you ?
Regards
Gerry
