Greetings to all -
My name is Rob and, like Hetzer, I am a new old modeler. I am 44 years old and have recently gotten back into building NASCAR 1/24. I don't necessarily care for box-stock, so I am tending to modify with aftermarket and scratchbuilt parts and pieces. I have been on a modeling hiatus for the past few weeks, as I have had some honey-do's, daddy-do's, and mother-do's ( my mom is recently widowed ) to get out of the way, plus I have been busy building a paint storage cabinet and a spray paint booth. I'm getting the serious itch to finish the 97 Labonte MC I have nearly completed, so I can get to the other 40 or so models I have waiting for me. As I get rolling again, hopefully I will be able to post some tips to help others bypass the problems I may encounter. I am also working on "home-made" decal setting and solvent solutions ( I'm also cheap!!! ), so as soon as I have the recipes worked out to my satisfaction, I wiil post them on the "Tips and Techniques" section of the forum. Sorry for being so long-winded, and thanks for having me.
