TimStangohr Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 I built model cars and trucks as a kid, back before the days of photoetched saws, haha. I loved to make weathered beaters, I remember saving flood silt (the finest dirt there is) and using it to make mud for a farm truck build. All of the model stuff got packed up once I got my driver's license at age 15. Right now I am scaling down my full time career to make time for modeling again. My 7 year old is interested. These seem to be exciting days for the hobby as a whole. Would most of you share that feeling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disabled modeler Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Welcome Tim..! For me the golden age of building was the 60s and 70s stuff....glad some are making a came back. Your right...once a builder always a builder...I cant imagine life without plastic...would be very boring for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
