This is the starter placeholder. I am still working on my Ju88 and probably will through the weekend. (We'll see on that though)

I did a lifetime subscription to EPOCH TIMES last year after doing yearly subscriptions for several years. Have never regretted it. Here is a historical article that came in my morning email today. It had a couple of things that I did not previously know. Epoch Times article the battle of...

Hey all! Saúl and I met for dinner and had a great time visiting. We shared life's stories and experiences. Very interesting guy and I hope we can visit again soon (though it probably won't be face to face like tonight. I think we actually visited something like 3 hours as I got to Outback...

I received a facebook message from Susan this afternoon and she has decided to auction off all the dioramas that Bob had built and collected over the years. There are the dios that Bob had built as well as several by Louis Pruneau that were in his collection. There are also other collectibles...

Hey! A new installment of Tool Time! Something really different this time and it starts about 30 years ago. At the time I was really into trying to build super models (yeah, kind of like I do now :smack:) and a "NEW" tool showed up called and "Air Eraser". It is actually designed for use by...

I mentioned a little while back that I was upgrading my computer's operating system. That went along fairly well until a component on the video card exploded and the machine went black. I considered just getting another video card, but I always do a bit of research and in this case I read a...

I believe this beastie was the build that fully brought me to MA if I look into the way back machine. I think that old thread is still around, but I don't recommend looking it up as my posting style is much better these days. Also there will be a lot more of the in process detail that was left...

In some ways this is like a full size type model with perfect detail. You even get to play with it when it is done. In some ways the disassembly part of this project can be a big help for detail and reference. Dirt, dust, and a tiny bit of rust. @moon puppy Bob if you don't want this...

Several years ago I started a Do17Z kit (which is on the "I'll get back to it one day" shelf) The other half of the kit was a Boulton Paul Defiant MkI. It has been floating around my stash in it's plastic bag for a little while and while I have several 1/72 kits from a Redstone rocket to a...

@moon puppy Today is Feb 29th (yeah we had an extra day before starting) We need the forum opened up so folks can start doing their posts.

22 years ago today something terrible happened in New York City. As I drove down from Syracuse through Scranton and then across New Jersey I came over a hill and saw this NYC skyline.

I am going up for some training and will be in Secaucus NJ this coming week. If there is someone in the area that would like to meet up for dinner etc. PM me. On another note, yesterday I FINALLY emptied my storage out. My old '77 beetle is now in it's new home in my garage where it will...

While it is mainly figures and Sci-Fi, the workmanship on the figures and many of the Sci-Fi builds would rival that of the Nationals. I am also picking up the last two Halloween Nightmare figures that fit together to form a giant diorama. At this point one of the figures is now no longer...

A person that had collected a lot of Lewis Pruneau's and Shep Paine's work also had Bob's "Winds of War". Many items were sold as well as works by other lesser known people. Here are some photos that were posted on the web site. The site is still such...

We had some interesting builds this year and it looked like a number of folks succeeded in their builds. Here was mine: If you would like to see the build details here is the LInk to the Build.

Thanks to PaulW, I was able to meet Scotty Wilson a few years before the fateful day. He was in a hanger at Harvey Young airport in Tulsa. I was given permission to give everything a good close look and took quite a few photos. At the time he was working on one of the fuel tanks. The plane...

Wow this snuck up on us this year. I have my choice for this year. It is a small civil aircraft and will be a bit of a tribute build.

I have a small box of rather interesting vac kits. One is of the HL-10 lifting body and is about 60-70% done. Hard part was coming up with landing gear and trying to find cockpit photos for it. (Another 80's build that stalled from lack of info) I also have the other lifting body X-planes in...
