Norbert,
This is a great idea! I'm going to have to keep this in mind for my club next
year...
I really like the idea of building something for someone, even if it's not
someone I would know very well...I tend to like those presents that come from
the heart, and taking the time and effort to build a model is pretty heartfelt.
And may all of you up north have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Joe Meno
