I stumbled across this site while searching for next winters project, a river or log pond floating loader.
My search brought me to the Big River Maru, a sternwheeler loader.
I don’t know who this modeler is, but his examples are just beautiful!
The menu is on the left. Scroll down to the Big River Maru and look at the entire page. Towards the bottom is his builders log.
Also are pages with his examples of logging locomotives, tractors, etc.
