bismarck Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Hi everyone. I'm new here, but i've followed the forum for a long time now. I work in a machine shop by trade, and have been building and collecting cars, trucks, military tanks, planes, ships in a variety of scales for the last 36 years. I promise not to pester you all too much. I'm here to learn, not nitpick. I have seen some of the most amazing builds on here. I need to get to work to do ALOT of catching up. Thanks everybody.

goodguyinar416 Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) High Octane! I'm the cop...lol......., well the recently retired one. Bismarck, I was in your state a couple years ago and the people there are awesome. Was down by Bengals stadium. I went to a class for becoming lie detector examiner, loved it. Anyway welcome to the forum from Arkansas..... Edited May 10, 2013 by goodguyinar416
Rob Hall Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) Welcome aboard. I'm an Ohio native, from Steubenville and the hills of Tuscarawas County (near Gnadenhutten) originally....lived in Kent and the Stow area (Kent State, '88 and '92) before moving to Michigan in '94. Still go back once-twice a year to visit family. So green and humid back there, enjoy my visits. Speaking of my past modeling experiences w/ models and Ohio, my first 1/25th scale glue kits came from a Mr Wiggs store in Steubenville in 1977. Also remember getting kits at Harts and Rinks stores in New Philadelphia in the late '70s-early '80s. Edited May 10, 2013 by Rob Hall
gwolf Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 When I think of Ohio and model cars I think of $4 Jo-Han kits at the Clines 5&10 in New Matamoras, Ohio, right down the road from Newport and Marietta. Nice to see some familiar Ohio town names on here.
Blackwolf Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Hello and welcome to the forum from Eastern Kentucky
