boundless enthusiasm.  You have done wonderfully, my friend! Thank you
so much for this forum...it feels like home.

Congrats to you, Des. I think that speaks volumes for what a great site this is. People wouldn't post so much, if they didn't enjoy it!

Geez, I wander away to the Dark Side of AFV modelling for a couple of months only to return to find out that you fellows have been doing just fine without me. Congratulations Des and to everyone else who make this such a welcoming place for guys like me who struggle to build these rigged contraptions.

Cheers,

Chris

It's your fault, Des. If you hadn't made such a nice place we wouldn't come to visit so much. :)

Thanks for a great forum.

I've said it in other posts here, but it bears repeating..................."Thank You" for providing a friendly, accepting place to get advice and learn. THAT'S what keeps me coming back!!  ;) ;) ;)

I've given up two other forums because they seemed full of egotistical stuffed shirts that only wanted to brag, and were not keen on sharing their "secrets". Didn't like "cliches" in High School, don't like 'em now, almost 50 years on.

It's been said many times, and I'll repeat it - Thanks Des!
This is my main source of inspiration and tips, all so willingly shared. Not a single stuck-up, self-centred, a**hole anywhere to be found: no-one trying to change history; no-one trying to insist that "their" way, or belief, is correct and everyone else is an idiot - so thanks also to all of you, fellow forumites, for keeping this such a friendly, helpful place to visit!

+1.

I also like to the wonders you guys can make... from the 1/72 to the 1/x scale scratch builders, there's lots of talent in this forum.

Thx to Des for not just putting together some of the most spectacular builds, but for this great site too.

Cheers
