  1. As the others have said that is one of the nicest Novas I have ever seen.

    One heck of a job cleaning up the mess you talk about. You should be proud of your recovery from the CA mishap.

  2. Rob, I have been thinking about this is as well, but with less the 20 kits, I can use a napkin :lol: , but to answer your question, I think one program you could use would be a spread sheet I think. I do know there are a lot of members on here that use computer programs do keep an inventory

    I thought of a spreadsheet as well Jonathan but I think there are some good programs out there that would make it a little easier to search.

  3. Wow, Rob, how many kits do you have that you need "tracking" software? :D

    I knew that question would come up. Honestly I really don't know how many I have at this point. I boxed up 100 kits today and moved them to the basement for storage. Even that didn't make a dent in my collection.

    I think I need to join plastic anonymous or something. :blink:

  4. I think it is time for me to get a little more organized. Cleaning out my model room today I came across many duplicate kits stashed away in the back of my storage cabinets. So I decided it is time to get all of this information onto my computer so I can track what I have better.

    Has anyone come across a good free inventory program designed to manage model inventories?

    I have been searching the net and found a few but I thought I would seek the advice from those who are using something today.

    Thanks in advance.

  5. For me it is a hobby only. Building models to sell would never pay for the time and effort I would have to put into them. I have been asked to build kits for others and I do so if the provide the kit and paint. I enjoy building for others as much as I do for myself. I have a large collection of kits with mulitples of some. I still have no intention on selling them. I buy the kits to build and enjoy the hobby to much to introduce the frustration of trying to run a small business. If I did it would be no longer a fun hobby for me.

  6. What a very cool kit!

    I can just imagine some kid putting that together many years ago using their imagination. I used to use real carpet on some of my builds when I was a kid as well. I thought it looked great at the time.

    You are giving this model a second life. I can't wait to see more.
