Hello everyone, I started on the first of hopefully a couple projects to complete over the next week while I have some time off work.

I am starting with the Saturn 1B by Ton Noteboom, using the enhanced parts by both legal and mysteroid.

The model is rescaled from 1:96 to match my Falcon 9 and Atlas V at 1:144 scale.

Made some good progress today on the first stage, I will share more as I work through it.

In the 70's my dad had a couple of plastic rocket modelss, The Apollo, soyuz, gemini and several others,
When I was litle I tried to fly with them and they all crashed. They end up in an carton box.When I was 18 years old I rebuild them.
Then the cat's took them down and they and up in the bin. I think I will rebuild some in paper.

Thank you all for the nice feedback!

I made some good progress over the past couple of days.
Overall I am really enjoying how well the model is coming together.

Mysteroid; big thank you for your recent work on the upgraded parts, they really make the model shine!
