| | | | | | | | (...) Well, for good or for bad, I'll be building it soon. I already went through the site and picked out the one that I'll be going after: I don't know whether it will make it into the train show, but maybe ... Yesterday I went through and wrote (...)

As I alluded to in an earlier post, I have two things actively "on the bench" (as a model builder might say)- a Gundam using the new Stormtrooper/Threepio ball joints and an airship. I have the Gundam's legs done- he's up to his waist, (...) (24 years ago, 2-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
