  1. Very good, I wish I had bits leftover!
  2. Yes I have built the mono-wing about two years ago, nice kit.
  3. When my youngest son bought over his then girlfriend (now wife) She said that she was told although I was in my then late 60's that I still played with toys! But I notice all the time that people who sit around after retiring with no hobbies can't understand the idea of having hobbies at all. Our local 'Men in Sheds' has loads of men who only had a job that took over their lives, but now can't even drive a screw into a piece of wood or even change a light bulb! As a 'Practical Man' I've built kit cars, built log cabins, wired new light fittings (after being trained by my late electrician brother) laid crazy paving, built garden walls and laid wood floors (although I can't now that my knees won't stand it). Anything practical interests me and I must try it! Like I still build model kits at 76 when I started at 8 years old with Airfix WW2 fighter planes and tube glue, yuk!
  4. I can't see where to put this as a just bought, as it's a plane! A cheapie already opened
  5. Thanks Larry. I'm having problems posting pics since my Fotki had a hiccup!
  6. Just finished! As the window pieces fell through the openings I choose some thin clear plastic retail packaging, cut out and added to the body.
  7. Yes we in the UK had various Fibreglass kit cars, sitting on Beetle chassis, some very good, some very bad! I built one of these kits a few years back. It took a lot the line up the top and bottom halves of the body!
  8. Thanks guys. The roof light bar legs are too long so I will have modify the way it sits on the roof! Yes Noel, a veritable Chelsea Tractor!
  9. Thanks David, that is an accolade!
