    USS Arizona Memorial

    Inky, it *is* worth it. Knowing that there are sailors below you, well..... It's hard to describe. You're above a graveyard. Mom will never talk about it, but we're sure she lost someone there, that day. Agree with you Zathros, I *like* freebies too! There is an Arizone Memorial on the site...

    USS Arizona Memorial

    Slight correction to romanmodels post. www.micromodelsusa.com Kept wondering why it kept refering me back to Zealots when I tried clicking on it.

    USS Arizona Memorial

    Looked all over the downloads section and couldn't find it. In younger days, I've stood on the Arizona Memorial twice. It's quite a moving experience, and am not ashamed to say it brought tears to my eyes both times. Thanks for a beautiful model.

    Fiddlers Green Freebies!!!

    Just found on another forum, that Fiddlers Green is giving away a model a weel from different areas. He does ask that you bookmark as it helps with Google and Yahoo standings. I tried to download this weeks and got a 404. Seems a few others have too. I could find no way to contact Chip to let...

    The Uhu02 appreciation thread

    Oh so true about getting while the gettin' is good. I too, did not download a number of build pages or models (both Uhu's and others) and now regret it. One thing I did grab was the *Carousel* for the Discovery. Thought about building it as a stand alone. To go along with Zathros, if you see...

    Tintin Rocket

    There's a link in this thread to another Tintin rocket, complete with LED lighting on this forum. Remembered it from awhile back. Tried to download a couple of times, had a corrupted file. Tried again today, perfect download. Like the idea of mixing paper modeling with simple electronics <G>!

    My Lack of Modeling

    Thanks for the kind words Zathros. Seeing an ophthamologist tomorrow. As far as modeling goes, you, at least, *have* built things. And hopefully will again. I've got faith. Still looking for the el cheapo set of cutting instruments I bought. And the light card stock. Have a few things I want to...

    My Lack of Modeling

    Zathros, had *no* idea. Certainly hope things improve for you. Had to laugh at your *tire filling machine*! Hadn't thought of it that way before. I use one as well. They actually lowered the pressure on mine. At the moment my diabetes is wrecking my eyesight. Reading the screen with a magnifying...
