How about a quick words only tutorial? I'd probably be more inclined to have a go if I had more time. As it is, I seem to spend more time making a model than I ever did, most likely because I'm fussier about the end result than I've ever been. What with lozenge, rigging, internals, correcting etc I find my productivity rate is frustratingly low. Have said that, I'd still be very interested, as I'm sure many other list members would be, in how you carve your own.

Can I deduce from your snail mail address that you work in a library? I was a librarian once (in the WA State Library) for many of the best years of my life. I now train in ethics in the public sector (no, that's not an oxymoron). Did I read a previous posting where you mentioned your academic background in theology? Yes, it is a howling wind and freezing cold over here, too - but little rain. If you're ever in Perth let me know. We have a WW1 modellers' group that meets about every six weeks (eight members) where we praise each other's models and share mail orders and gossip. (Curse the tyranny of distance. Mail order becomes a necessity here.) You'd be most welcome to come along to a meeting. Are there many other Oz members on this list do you know? Stay warm (at least it's good modelling weather).
