AGE

[PARTSMARTY]

Although it's not important at all I was just curious about the age of most people in our modeling community.I'll start-I'll be 61 in about 3 weeks and my passion for modeling is never been higher.

If you go to the "Off Topic Lounge" section of this site, you will see one or two threads on this subject. Including one that recently figured out the average age of people using this site. This turned out to be one of the few times where I turned out to be above average. ? or ?

I'm 72 and have been building off and on since 1954. I like building models of cars I have owned, wish I could of afforded once upon a time and those that remind me of when I was thick of hair and thin of waist unlike now.

Age is 69.5 Started with planes in early '50's changed to cars in 1959.

[Draggon]

I'm old as dirt. That makes some of you older than dirt. 

[10thumbs]

Great to see that so many older types are still building, good stuff.  Lots left to build guys, lets do it!

65 here.

[glue fumes]

I'm half way to 106. been building models since 1972

At some point age becomes a relevant factor when building models. 

I'm 66 and have had to adjust my building methods to compensate for a less than steady hand and imperfect eyesight.

I can still get a reasonably good result but I've had to screw back the perfectionist in me a bit to keep it enjoyable. Bet I'm not the only one.
