hi toshi! i'm a personal friend with tanker builder and fermis. i've heard much about you from TB.

you can always find space to build. i'm a truck driver and have been building in the sleeper quarters for years(when i have time)!!! i use a folding "tv" table about 18 by 20 inches. sure, the sprues are scattered about my bunk, paint bottles and what-nots on the deck, but it works.

i've heard much about you from TB(i visit the FSM site when i can), you can't throw the towel in because of space limitations, there's always a way. hang in there!!

Toshi...been a while since I've been on the boards.  I haven't read all the responses in this thread but I hope you persevere.  You can make modelling work anywhere if you want to.  Keep at it.  Damn the torpedoes.  Full speed ahead!

Retired and living the dream!

I will do my best to persevere as you so correctly state.  I want to thank you for the support you are giving me, it's highly appreciate it.

Please don't quit! I remember building a 1/96 scale "Cutty Sark" in a barracks room with three other people in it. There's always room if you look for it.

Toshi,

 

Do you still live in Streetsboro?  I saw the letter in last months magazine and was quite surprised as I live in Streetsboro as well!

Don't worry at the temporary setback.  I think you will find a way to stick with the hobby.

Yes I do.  I live in Settlers Landing off of Frost road.  I'm just moving into a smaller condo at this same property.  Where are you at?

I used to live over the next street of which is Summers.  What a coincidence.  Once I've moved and settled in, we can get together and talk shop.
