    Building a 1/48 Hangar...HELP!

    As it sits now, had to use a different size stock for the roof trusses..I have one laid out now, only five more left (I think)? Will keep updating as I can, plenty of things going on to divert my attention lately (but I suppose that's why this is a hobby and not work) :-)

    Spitfire Mk.1 painting..

    Thanks Wurger! I think my mind is made up, I'll purchase that Airbrush set (79.99 on eBay) next pay day and try it out. I'm both anxious and nervous about the experience. How long have you had yours?

    This is seriously p*ssed-off me.

    !*#$#$!#$ Explode would be an understatement...my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I hope the 'individual' gets what is coming to him. Those types never do last where they send them. Disgusts me that these kinds of people are around/breathing..
