The forums were private to existing IPMS/USA members. How were they attracting new members to being with?

The pin arrived today, thanks to VonL for this! Randy

That's so fantastic! I've sent you a private message with my address... thanks! Randy

Dave-- have you had a chance to look?

Thanks everyone for looking! Keeping my fingers crossed! (My collection of pins, we've used to make a shadow-box display. But she likes to wear hers on the tote bag she carries at conventions. This pin slipped off during one of the seminars, we went back and searched a good radius around her chair, but no dice. We also wrote on the lost/found/wanted whiteboards, and posted in the IPMS Nats Facebook group, but no luck. It probably got swept up by the cleaning crew.)

At the recent San Marcos show, my wife lost her 2019 pin from Chattanooga. This is the convention pin, not the judging pin (she still has her judging pin). This was her first convention, so it's pretty sentimental for her. If you have one you're willing to part with, we would be happy to pay a reasonable price (plus shipping). Randy (#29209)

Kind of going out on a limb, here, as I've tried in several forums and come up with nothing. But here goes... I'm interested in building the Dragon Wagon hauling a LCM-3, as when they were heading towards (I believe) the Rhine crossing. But I've found next to zero photos of this arrangement, and have no idea how the LCM-3 was tied down to the trailer. I've found a couple of photos in the Dragon Wagon book by Ampersand Publishing, but none of the photos give any hint as to how this was secured to the trailer. Any pointers greatly appreciated!

Steve, welcome to the IPMS/USA board! I don't recognize your name, but I will qualify that by saying I'm crap at remembering names. So if you've been to the local clubs and we've met, forgive me. But if you haven't been to the local IPMS meetings, have a look at the Fremont Hornets (http://fremonthornets.org/). Our next meeting is this Friday, and it's our annual holiday meeting where we just sit around eating pizza and being sociable. Randy

What color did you use for the cockpit interior? Was it out of a bottle, or did you have to custom-mix it? Randy
