Wow, thanks for the detailed reply. It seems like when I visit a "hobby" store in a new town, it only carries RC or train stuff.
I will have to check out Ron's again. My sister used to live down the street in the early 1990s from them and I walked there a couple times. Ram's looks interesting, but sounds like the owner has a lot of health problems. Venture's website loks like mostly RC stuff.
I did find a Hobby and Bike shop in Grayslake, but models and bicycles are a strange combination for a business.

I haven't had time to visit, but a friend happily told me 3 weeks ago the store replenished it's stock of kits.
BTW........please refer to the $229 thread for instructions on how to get your wife to let you buy and keep a kit valued at $229 or more........
