Gidday Jacob

I enjoyed the review as well.

Just a question for Jacob and Mark is it just a coincidence that Pennsylvania is producing all these ship modellers?

Is there something in the local air/water contributing to this?

LOL

Hi Sean!

Probably because we're practically landlocked here in Western PA!
:-)

We've got water and boats, but not oceans and ships!!! LOL (oh but we do in our dreams, don't we, Jake? )

Thanks guys. I’m glad you liked it.
Hopefully this will just be the first of many reviews I can do for the site and for the kitmaker network as a whole.

We’ve got Erie.
And I’m still not sure what exactly they have in this water. :-)

(Actually my interest in the warships comes from having a grandfather and half brother who both served in the navy as well as a niece who’s in now)
