Hello all

A little about me:  I have always liked working with my hands. Built a few models when I was a kid, meaning less than 10. 

I have been working in auto parts for 30 years, minus a couple of years off to be a bench jeweler and to run heavy equipment digging swimming pools. 

I have a penchant for working on things and restoring or refurbing them, be it a classic car, bicycle, toaster, or vintage furniture. I love it all.


I have basically been priced out of everything except model cars, so that is where I would like to spend some time.


I am confident that I can build a good model. I am a great "assembler". What I would like to accomplish through modeling as an adult is the ability to "think outside the box".



I want to test my creativity through the medium of model cars and push my limits. I want to become proficient with painting, putty, casting, and the like.



I am happy to be on the forum and look forward to learning from and interacting with fellow members.

Best regards, Mark
