WHO ARE WE
The Model Shipwrights of Niagara (aka MSON) is a scale model ship building club for like-minded people of any skill level; from novice to professional. Our club is physically located in Niagara-on-the-Lake (aka NOTL), Ontario, Canada, but our membership is global, without borders. While our emphasis is on display models, including kits and scratch built, members also have interests in building in paper, wood and plastic, pond and R/C models.
