Hi Perksy, welcome to the forum . Is that little model shop still at the raiway station in Melbourne. They were really helpful to me when I was on holiday there in 2001, spent a small fortune in there and had to get most of it shipped back to the uk.

Welcome Persky You will do fine and will love every minute of time spent on it. What I find best of all it frees my mine totally away from all work related problems. Best hobby I tried. and hopefully new friend on here will make it even more enjoyable. Second build for me, almost finished the HMS Endeavour. Mrchips Regards
Kevin A (aka mrchips)

Hi,
This is my first build and I'm really enjoying it! Waiting for the tool kit that comes with the 5th delivery before I go much further. I'm glad I found this forum!
