Noctavigant Posted March 14, 2018 Share #1 Posted March 14, 2018 Hi all! I've been meaning to post here for some time. I've been registered for almost 4 years, better late than never I've been following this site for some time, reading over build logs, and trying out cheap MidWest kits before I posted an actual build. I currently build a lot of plastic amour and ship kits, and I am active with our local IPMS chapter. I used to build furniture a long time ago, but after selling our home a few years ago, I had no where to keep the tools and work. I did manage to take over our den and the wife has been completely supporting my hobby. I am a systems administrator for a local school district. Building models helps me relax and keeps me off a computer most evenings. I will be posting a build log of my current project shortly. geoff, Keith Black, mtaylor and 4 others 7 Quote ~Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6ohiocav Posted March 16, 2018 Share #11 Posted March 16, 2018 Sean, Welcome aboard. As a fellow buckeye, I have to reiterate Lee's suggestion to join the modeling club. I have been a member for two years, and although I have a hard time making all of the meetings (I am 2 hours away), the ones I have attended are really helpful. The members of this club are some of the finest craftsmen in the state, and you will learn a lot. We are all looking forward to you build log. geoff, Keith Black, Noctavigant and 1 other 4 Quote Darrell Completed build - US Brig.
