Hello from the Philly Burbs

Hi Mike! Welcome to the Forums! Glad to have you with us.

Jim 

Stay Safe.

Welcome aboard,thats a great build

Where in the "Philly Burbs" are ya?  I am in Montco, right up near the bucks border!

Welcome to the forums!

Hello Mike! Welcome to the forums!

i am in Bucks County - Fountainville to be exact north of Doylestown and 1 mile south of Dublin

Welcome to the forum, Mike!

I live in Bethlehem, but I grew up in Harleysville, went to Souderton (Go Big Red!).

There are a couple of clubs in the area that might interest you, too.

One is the Delaware Valley Scale Modelers.  They meet on the first Friday of every month, at Artisans Hall on the Boulevard.  They've been meeting via Zoom since the lockdowns started.  Their website is https://www.dvsm.org/index.html, and they have a Facebook group that they use as a forum.

The other one is the Lehigh ValleyScale Modelers.  They meet every other Wednesday (an aggressive schedule) at the Catasauqua Borough Hall, in Catasauqua, just above Allentown.  Also meeting via Zoom since the lockdowns started.  No website, but they also use a Facebook group as their forum.

There used to be an informal modeler's group in Bucks, too; I think they used to meet at Herb's in Doylestown, till he closed.  Now, I think they meet online, and at different people's homes.

Anyway, I look forward to seeing your builds, wherever you may post or show them!

Best regards,

Brad

This is fantastic. Thanks for this. All of this right in my area. And don't remind me about Herbs. I still cry over that. I didn't even have to buy anything - I could just get lost for hours thinking about what I was going to buy. 

I've got some work on my jet exhaust up in the Airplane forum right now. Was struggling.

Welcome! Sounds like youve made connections already.

Welcome aboard.

Welcome to the Forums! 

Well, welcome!  I am a member of the Lehigh Valley group (at least via the Facebook group) But I don't get on the zoom calls much, because they meet and I usually have a cubscout thing those same nights...I'm cubmaster of Hatboro's cub pack.  

Can't wait to check out some of your work!
