    The knowledge gained from building planes

    That the RCAF didn't want the Arrow. They got so fed up with Crawford Gorden's refusal to listen to them about their concerns and needs that asked Defenbaker to scrap the project LONG before the axe finally fell. Among the concerns the Airforce had, the Arrow was a pure straight line...

    Your Starter Kit on a Budget

    You know... this is a great senario for a contest. Everyone pitches in a set amount of cash and receives the same kit in their area of building preference. Tanks to tankers, winged things to wing nuts and so on. All is unknown until the start date when the stuff is mass mailed to all. During the...

    Learning in Scale Modeling

    Patience. There is a sense of relaxation when I build that eases tension and this is a result of practiced patience. Needed in both build and completing models, but also in my relationship with the other two legged meat bags that walk this planet. Now if I could teach people to be patient with...

    I would like to apologize to ya'll for my total wipe out on the Eagle. I had no idea that white metal was so difficult.

    Space 1999 Eagle

    It is official... I don't have the skill sets to work with this model. So far, I have spent about 10 hours on the white metal casting of the frames that hold the utility portions of the Eagle. And total net result... 2 1/2 plus I have ruined my microfiles that actually fit in the holes. The...

    metal gear solid 4 ,gecko...finished.

    Dude... you are a machine! That thing is amazing. I have never felt comfortable in the world of scratchbuilding. You did an outstanding job in no time flat. It looks just like the thing in the clips you showed us. So are you going to offer up a second build? How about a scratchbuilt Super mega...
