New member intro- I'm building a tugboat!

Hi forum, Brian here, saying hello!

I'm 70, from the U.K. North East of England, love tech and building stuff!
I have picked a tugboat as this winter's long term project build.

Here's the inspiration, it's a tug boat from the River Tees, Northern England. I used to get a lift home, from my apprenticeship in a local shipyard, some times, on the tugboat.
Enough of me for now...

Welcome Brian! That's a nice clean looking tug. Are you scratch building? Please post photos of your build and if you need any advice just ask.

Cheers Barrie!

Yes, i'm scratch building. I am just at the cardboard modelling stage.
In the past i have published a build blog on my youtube channel. Is it ok to post links here in the future?
