    My name is Rob Wood. I was born at the United States Naval Academy in 1948, where my father was teaching deep sea salvage and repair. I grew up on and around US Navy ships and boats, and have built models since I was 10. I eventually started a business building sets, props, models, and mechanical special effects for tv, film and photography. These days, I build, restore and operate RC boats and ships for pleasure.

    I love this website, and the community that shares knowledge, photos and videos here!

      Hi Rob, and welcome aboard! 🇺🇸

      I can certainly relate to your experience building props and models.
      I also worked here in Miami for Propmasters, where we had a studio and built props for television and commercials.
      We shot quite a few Subway commercials, but one of my favorites was a beer commercial where we built a small floating island with a palm tree and took it out to the beach.
      Two stranded men were on the island, and one hallucinated that his partner was a giant beer bottle and actually tried to unscrew his head! 😂

      Those were some really fun and memorable times building props.
      It’s great to see someone with such an interesting background joining this wonderful community. Welcome aboard, Rob!

      Hi let me be the first to welcome you "on board " 😀.
      Ask any information and somebody on here will have the relevant knowledge to give you the correct answers.
      I've just been doing the question of the day on the puzzle section and I have to wait until 1am in the morning to get the new one. So now I will have to get to bed, See you later from a small village near Leeds UK..😴😴..

      Beautiful boat, Steve!
      That’s a really nicely built model.
      The lines and the layout remind me of some of the classic British launches.

      I’m afraid I can’t identify the exact manufacturer or scale from these photos, but the fiberglass hull and the quality of the woodwork certainly make it look like it was a well-made kit.
      Hopefully someone here recognizes it.
      Good luck with the restoration—I’ll be following along!

    Hello! We were in Köhlen, in the Cuxhaven district, on Saturday. There is a snack bar there, and the owner also runs a very small private museum right next door, featuring some incredible exhibits. Here is a small selection.

      Serenity-

      God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
      the courage to change the things I can,
      and the wisdom to know the difference.

      The tools are provided on this site. They just need the wisdom to recognize and use them.
      😎

    My initial look at this web site had some interesting projects. I was looking for some information on the FAIRMILE B. I made what was I thought was a single donation but it turned out to be a single one year subscription. That has been stopped. Thankyou.

    I would now like my email address removed as I am getting many daily emails.

    I did not get any info on the "B" model.

    Thankyou John Quigley

      It is disappointing to read that you wish to withdraw from the website and that it has not met your expectations.

      Regarding the model you seek, FAIRMILE B, this web site had a SEARCH category. Did you try entering in the vessel in there?

      I just did and found references going back 6 years giving history of the Fairmile company and the various designs that came out of it.

      Try it John Quigley and you might be surprised. If after reading through all 6 years of posts on the Fairmile you have not found the information you seek, then ask specifically what it is you seek.

      All Modelling,

      You are in control of your own account.
      Click on your user name in the upper left side of the page.
      Once there, choose "My Account".
      From there, you can see and choose to be an ongoing Subscriber or "one off donation" Contributor. They are pretty well spelled out.
      Below that, you will choose what Notifications you would like to receive. Simply turn off any or all you do not wish to get.
      I didn't design, nor do I run the site. But, I feel the interface is pretty straightforward.

      From what I see there was quite a bit of response/support to your original query 6 months ago.

      As with any group, you get out what you put in. I don't see a lot of activity on your profile .....

      Just my thoughts,
      Dave B

      I echo DW... you get out what you put in, a phrase I go by myself. As an ex club Secretary, it is always nice to have a new member join in, take part and get accepted. In administration there are far more people avoiding it than taking it on.

    I love that modellers,
    Experienced or not, can talk, ask questions and document their experiences and struggles.
