Hi Trev, do you know Brent? Thought maybe I know you... There is another hobby shop in Westville on main road called Hobbytech (not sure of the exact address), and another model shop in the mall just behind it. There is another one in Glenwood on Brand road, just before McDonald road. They specialise in planes, but will stock spare wood (you're going to need it for fixing mistakes, and I'm sure there won't be much extra with our parts...) Part time modeller, full time biker
Built: Pinta
Belle Poule (plastic)
Endeavour
Scratch build of Pirate ship "Neptune" (Based on cutter "HMS Aldebaran"
Current builds: Victory

Howzit and welcome Trev. The more South African modelers we see here the better it will be and less chance that the project will be pulled early due to lack of interest. So a huge welcome. I got issue 4 yesterday - I am glad I haven't subscribed I think it would drive me bonkers waiting +- 4 weeks for new copies to arrive. Enjoy it. Current build : The Victory
Pending builds : none - yet
Built loads of bikes trucks planes and boats - all plastic kits.
on wish list - a 1:24 spitfire, in wood, plastic, just as long as I can build it :)
