                        Welcome to the forum Kris. Don't worry the superglue wears off your fingers after a few days. Looks like I started a popular trend with getting the wife into modeling.

                        Welcome Demankat,
                        Your husband has nothing but good things to say. Go ahead search the forum. A lot of posts may have been edited by nowBig Smile [:D]. He wants you to model. We modelers always say we need another hand, you have two. He wants you for your body er hands. You should meet up with the other wives and start a support group.

I assure you that you'll get hooked on modeling... especially since your husband's got all the right tools and paint! if you have any questions just fire away... these guys/girls in the forum have some really good advice to share. Smile [:)] Let us see the X-1 too!

                        Man! how many husband/wife parent/offspring sibling/sibling pairs do we have in this forum anyway?!? too bad none of my relatives are into "building accurate historical Miniatures"... Sad [:(]

                        Yeah Scott keeps the Debonder close by just for me I think. I think I have used have the bottle already. Doing better than my brother did tho. He once had a bottle of superglue in his back pocket and forgot about it. Awhile later he put his hand into his pocket and it was stuck. Ended up spending hours in the ER having it unglued.

                        My husband (demono69) told me about this forum and I thought that I might as well see what all the fuss is about. Every time I see him any more he is either on this forum or doing a model. He finally convinced me to build one of my own. He got me the Revell 1/32 Bell X-1. It is harder than I thought to build. My painting technique needs much work and I need to learn how to use superglue without gluing my fingers together or even to the model itself.
