rlwhitt Posted January 25, 2023 #1 Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) Hi all, Very pleased to find such a well organized and info-rich site! I have done some ships in plastic many years ago and have frequently desired to venture into wood, but feared I would not have the time I’d like to devote. Well the kids are off the payroll and retirement looms pretty close so it’s time, before all my eyesight goes! 🙂 I have been off and on into Card Modeling for a number of years, mostly aircraft (@ccoyle, I think I recognize you from papermodelers.com and other places, nice to see a familiar “face” here). I have recently ordered the NRG half-hull training kit and will be starting there to see if I have any aptitude at all for this - fingers crossed!
