Hello and Happy new year to all.

Post #1 by Modelmaniac » Wed Dec 31, 2008 12:59 pm

Hello,
My name is Michael,currently living in Gloucester.
I found this site thanks to forum member Joes1989.
I have a very healthy obsession with almost anything plant related,and will take a Dremel to any 1:50 scale model.
If you watch the model pages on here I will show you examples of some of my butchery,especially tipper trucks that dont tip past 47degrees!
I have read some of the other intros and I like the sound of it here!
Seems like better/more machine/UK models info than DHS.
Happy new year

mik :D

Hi Mike,

And a BIG CMN Welcome to you !!

It's always interesting to see you model fanatics on CMN :thumbs_up:

Great work you are doing there mate :thumbs_up:

I used to collect the models as a kid but sadly when I left home my Mum in her wisdom decided to sell them all at a jumble sale :shock: :o :dizzy: !!

I think its too late for me to start again and I can't really justify the cost! But I do love to see them and would still love a nice cabinet full of them! ;)

Nonsense Nick you are never too old or to late to start collecting models .. as for the cost, well just think of it as an investment .. at least they are perhaps safer than saving money in the banks the way things are going
