                        Sorry I missed the Introduction spot earlier.  I've been posting on here for a couple of weeks now.

                         

                        Back in my youth (70's) I got started building models.  I can't remember modeling in the past 25 years and just got reinterested in it.  ALOT has changed since I did it back in the 70's and early 80's and you guys have been answering alot of my questions.  It seems like every day I have more questions about this old hobby.  Nothing major to tell about me.  Ordinary, average guy.  37 years old.  1 wife, 1 son, 1 dog.

                         

                        JohnTMcD.

                        You're not old.  I just turned 38. 

                        I used to build models in Middle and High School.
