Glynn Guest demonstrates that is possible and perfectly practicable to build an r/c model from old newspaper, which must an excellent example of positive recycling.Phil Button completes his TSS Manxman model and Douglas McGhee describes how he still builds radio controlled models, even though he now only has a very small workspace.Anthony Addams, whilst on his travels, has visited the Barcelona Maritime Museum that is notable for having an original Spanish oared fighting galley on display as well as an Ictineo submarine.
