Vandy Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Just getting into this hobby with the hope of turning it into a passion. Used to tinker around with the kits when I was a kid but could never seem to go back to the bench after slapping a kit together. I've always been fascinated with classic cars and since i don't have the capital to fulfill my 1:1 dreams, this hobby seems like a great way to satisfy my automotive fantasies. With that being said, after a few months of saving some coin, I went out and picked up a few kits and put together a bench/work area that could be considered high beginner to intermediate range. Looking forward to seeing what you all have on the bench, picking up some tips and tricks along the way, and getting to know a few of you.

Petetrucker07 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Welcome to our group. I too build what I can't afford. I'd rather have it on my shelf than not at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of info around the models about clubs and shows coming up. Thanks for the info! I plan on going down there on Saturday and will be looking for the model displays.
