[Shop-talk] Any Model Steam Boat builders out there?

[jem at milleredp.com]

I would happily TAKE them, pay shipping to my locale, store them
properly and digest them personally however long it took.  I knew
several model steam types back in the day and while my tubs were powered
by machinery that didn't belch water and various oils in the hull, I
always appreciated they went through.  

That isn't to say I'm necessarily the best one to make use of the
material therein but I'd certainly preserve them and try to make them
available to those who could.  

As for full size steamers of that nature...the closest I've gotten to
that was riding around Lake Windermere in a Victorian putt-putt launch
with my wife and a bottle of decent champers on our fourth anniversary
long ago.
