    Howdy all!
    John Marino, myself, and another gentleman Ethan Cosgriff, will be having a build session being very generously hosted by Ethan, and after consulting with John and Ethan, an invitation is being extended to any other builders/battlers in the area/region who might want to come out for a day, regardless of club association. All are welcome, but if you have preferred beverages/foodstuffs, you are encouraged to bring your own, and/or items to share. The session will start at 11am, but no set end time has been specified at this point. For details, please PM myself or JP Marino, as I do not know if Ethan has an account here on this forum. It will also be helpful to know how many of you/us will be invading Ethan's home.
    Hope to see some of you out there!

    I won't be able to attend this one, as I a hosting one on that date here in Ohio.
    But I would be interested in attending one later in the year.

    So, we three had a great time at Ethan's house today; much was accomplished (Ethan cut the windows for his Scharnhorst pre-dreadnought, John cut the windows for his Japanese cruiser, the Agano-class Yahagi, and I drilled my main and secondary turret barrel mounts, as well as my rudder posts, and also put the screws on my drive shafts), and we're planning another build session for mid-late March. More info coming on that soon, as well as pictures!

    Hey guys..... I guess I'm a day late...... Errr well.... 4 days late..... but if you could be so kind as to post when you have another build date, I may be able to make it for a while. I have just recently begun trying to get back into my build, so it would be cool to hang out for a while, and touch base with some guys in my area. Thanks!!
