Hi All,
My name is Ross from South Africa. I've just bought the A L Sopwith Camel kit, yesterday in fact. I googled it and found this site, looked very interesting so I decided to join.BigGrin I'm busy with a boat at the moment so the Sopwith will have to wait for a bit.
Cheers,
Ross

Thank you for the warm welcome. I've completed one model AL Bounty's Jolly Boat and I'm busy with the Marina 2. When I saw the Sopwith Camel i just couldn't resist it.

Hi is it Andy?
Thanks for the offer, I've already been looking at your camel build, it's very informative, in some ways clearer than the instruction DVD. The AL kit i'm building now, Marina 2 has had a couple of pieces missing, but nothing so far that I can't make myself. Thanks again.
Regards,
Ross

Hi Malc,
Same in this area, Jix is the best I've found so far. Most of the others seem to focus on RC models.
