jtrace Posted August 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Thanks for the kind replies I will try and post some of my better work I have been building pretty steady since I was a kid,I'm now 41. I can see already that I will learn alot from these boards.I have learned so much sinc I have joined IPMS and tried new things like resin and P/E before I joined I was just an OOB builder but after going to monthly meetings and so ar two regionals (Jerseycon and last years in Fredrickburg) I have branched out to try other methods. This is a great club and great people,I only wished I had joined sooner lol..... Thanks again, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aAzZ09 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Welcome John. This is the place to be for us modelers. It's served me well for the last 30 of the 55 years I've been a builder. And I owe IPMS a lot of gratitude! Happy Modeling, Mark Fiedler (aAzZ09) IPMS #14333 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtrace Posted August 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 I had a major set back this weekend/today. We had very heavy rains since sunday ended up with 6 inches of water in my cellar (where my shop is) got that all pumped out/shop vac'ed finishd this morning. Went out to get a coffee and came home and my dog knocked over one of my shelves with some finished kits and books on it,lost 3 tanks 4 planes and 2 small boats a PBR and LSSC all were ready for monthly chapter contests.....Good thing I love my dog and relize he dosen't know any better but was still angry as even the books got wet... About a half dozen Squadron walk arounds......Oh well back to the bench to try and rebuild some of them ( the worst part is they were some of my favorite kits that I thought I did real well on.........
