Hello from Northeast PA
Posted by VinceUher on Friday, July 13, 2018 9:58 AM

Hello all.  I wanted to introduce myself.  My name is Vince and I live in Northeast PA.  I'm 48 years old and a rookie to the hobbie.  I dabbled here and there throughout the years with modeling (mostly airplanes), but now I thought I'd give it a more serious try.  My interests at this time are mostly Armour vehicles.  I'm here to learn and share.  Thanks

Welcome to the forum, Vince!

Whereabout in Northeast PA?  I'm in Bethlehem, and we started a club last year, Lehigh Valley Scale Modelers.  We meet every other Wednesday at 6:30 at the AC Moore on Airport Road, just off Route 22.  Our next meeting is tomorrow night.  We don't have a website, but we do have a Facebook page, and also a meetup in Meetup.com.  If you can make it, you're more than welcome!

Best regards,

Brad

No , No , No , .... no "dabbling" allowed here. You must dive in with both feet.

( beside's ... when you dabble, glue get's everywhere...)

Hi Vince,

Another guy in Eastern Pa. here. I'm right near the Morgantown exit of the PA. Turnpike. An old timer at this having built for 71 of my 77 years. 

You've come to the right place. Lots of members here ready to help if you have a question/problem.

hey Vince!  I'm here in southeastern Pa, just outside of Philly!  Welcome to the forums!

Welcome, Vince. This is my favorite modeling forum, because of the people.

There are no stupid questions.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Hi;

 Think this way , Vince . You cannot dabble . You just nibbled at the hook till you got caught . Welcome Aboard ! T.B.
