Pocherphile

58 year old kid, grand parent, ready to retire and fish till I am sick of it.

I have built models most of my life........I can remember my Dad building a Pyro 1955 Harley as I sat @ the dinner table and watched. He would later on begin to allow me to help until I was building by myself @ about 8 years old.

Best Christmas was when he bought me a 1/12 Cord from Sears. I still remember that model and he and I building it. From there, a life long love of building many types of models.

I enjoy 1/12 F1

1/8 Pochers

1/16 Hudson Miniatures

Wood Ships

and I am a avid 1911 Auto fan.

As I have got older, I am now @ a point in my modeling that every nut and bolt does not have to be present, just enough stuff to add interest and hold one attention w/o over whelming them with all the bells and whistles.

Modeling has become more fun this way and more get completed.

I live in North Carolina where I was born and raised.

I am a vet of the US Army.......a Ole Cav Trooper.

I believe in God, Country and Family........in that order.
