As my user name suggests, I'm in the musical instrument business. Repairing for 26 plus years and teaching repair for the last six.
I'm one of th rare ones; I've been modeling consistantly for the past forty-five years. My first kit was a1/72 scale Lindberg HE100. I spent the whopping sum of $.29 to purchase it! I've tried my hand at building pretty much everything, but have returned to building 1/72 scale WWII aircraft...inspite of my dwindling eyesight.
I'm always looking for tool snd supplies that I can use in both activities..and there are quite a few.
Looking forward to proving that you can teach an old dog new tricks!
