Blake came across this wonderful site.  Some amazing photographs of ships from around the world over a period of many years.  I didn't see anything much newer than the mid 50's.  You could spend hours and hours looking at this high quality photos.  Thanks for sharing with us Blake!

Hi all,
Sorry for the late post.  Just a reminder that ship club meeting is this Saturday, May 28th, 10:00 am at Rockler Woodworking on Colorado Blvd.  From the feedback I received we will have another good turnout.

No planned program for this meeting.  Bring any new builds, new additions to your stash, stories, or what have you... and don't forget the donuts!

For the June meeting I'm considering putting together a program on selling on eBay.  I've had good luck and experiences selling some of my unwanted items there and I would be happy to share with you what I learned along the way.  We can also talk about what to look out for when buying items on that site.  If this is something you would be interested in please send me an email.



If anyone has a presentation they would like to do please let me know that as well.

Hi all,
Blake came across another video for us.  I suspect Bill Smallshaw will find this very familiar.  This is a behind the scenes tour of the USS Iowa.  I did this on the Missouri and found it all very familiar.  Sit back and enjoy.
