I've been building models of various scales off and on since I was a teen ( I'm now over 40). My main interest is 1:12 bikes , but I do enjoy building cars,aircraft and the occasional ship. My wife is quite supportive of my modelling up to a point ----Is it going to be one of your hours or one of mine I've heard her say (you know how you lose track of time) , but she knows where I am hour after hour (normally mumbling to myself - this doesn't work, that doesn't fit, where did that piece fly off too or something like that) .The main thing I find is that after work I can come home sit down and do some modelling and unwind from the day and relax.
