: Very nice, your craftsmanship is impressive.

: Last winter I decided to make a scaled down stripper as a shut in
: project. I cut the station forms, mounted them on a strongback
: and ripped some scaled down cedar strips. I quickly learned that
: attaching the strips to the forms in such a small scale was not
: easy, at all. The project is still a pile of parts.

: So I really appreciate the time and skill involved in your model.

: Ian

Thanks Ian. I feel that model making is in many ways harder (and take longer) than making the full size versions. My models take a long time to make because I only do small bits at at time. But they don't take up much space and they are always there, calling out to me, so I know they eventually WILL get finished.
