Judging by the pictures you post you know what you are talking about. Let's see... It is behind the Be.2, Burgess Dunne, Farman and Caudron GIII. And that's just the vacs! This plane was designed by a Dutchman named Frederik Koolhoven. From what I have read it was very disappointing. Apparently his next big idea was the F.K. 11 with 15 wings. I have no idea whether any were built, but it sure sounds goofy. The next time this guy pops up, to my knowledge, is in ot Winter War between Finland and Russia. Sweden gave Finland four of these two seat fighter (!) biplanes which were universally disliked. Did Koolhoven ever design an aircraft with good flying characteristics? I assume there had to be a few aircraft designed between F.K. 11 and 52. Later!

You know what I would pay money for? A WW I Modeling List Instructional VIDEO. Right now, I am up against a modeling brick wall. My mind envisions the work of Shane, Matt, Art, Ernest, Dennis, etc., etc. but my skills are still only several steps ahead of my 1966, 12 year-old modeling days. That explains why I have been mired in the Eduard Albatros D.V since last Christmas. My imagination is writing checks that my modeling skills can't cash. I am violating the "Dicta Ira" and am having more frustration than fun. Although I have read about lozenge application, graining techniques, weathering with pastels, painting the thin tapes on the trailing edge of a lozenge wing, aligning wings with jigs, scrathbuilding this or that for a WW I model, etc., etc.....There is no substitute for actually *seeing* it done. In medical education, there is a saying, "See one, do one, teach one". It's one thing to *read* about a procedure but you really need to *see* one before trying to do one. Do any of you award-winning masters on the List think this may be a worthwhile project for you? Each of you could video a segment of the techniques you are best at and the separate sections could then be edited into a complete work on WW I modeling. Once it is finished, it could have commercial value.

I know the first go round for the buttons was several years ago, and probably all any one remembers was that we got them. To the rest of the list members, I will be working on getting the necessary materials together to make another batch of them. I can't give you a target date at this time, but I am going to make more. I do not want to turn them into a money issue. I think that would devalue what they represent. I do not know how many buttons and pins I have purchased over the years, and all they have become is souvenirs from somewhere. They don't have any real value or sense of belonging to something. When I first made them, I had no idea they would represent what they have. I have met people who are on other lists, clubs and organizations etc. It turns out that we share a common interest, but we are still strangers when we meet. When I see someone wearing one of the list buttons, all it takes is a hi, and it is like we have known each other all of our lives. What started out as a couple of guys who happened to own a computer and liked to build models of WWI airplanes has turned into a very tight nit group of personalities. I have never been a pert of any group like this. It makes no difference if you are a first time model builder or a long time professional artist, you are welcome in this unusual family. When I get the next batch of buttons made, I will let you know and will start collecting the addresses for the mailing.

If American musicology had followed its theretofore history, Rock 'n' Roll would have died December 9, 1969, like it should have, at the Altamont Raceway, and been replaced by something new, progressive, and worthwhile. Given that baby boomers have yet to have had an original thought in their heads, unfortunately, rock became c-rock and was superceded by c-rap - the only mis-step Black culture has made in 400 years in the New World. What I want to know is, can the twin Spandaus equal Gene Krupa in the "long solo" on "Sing, Sing, Sing," and can The Wind In The Wires come close to Harry James doing anything??????

Oh, this will be my first crack at building a Vac.too! My goodness, I've never -seen- a Cramer-Craft kit, much less built one. I doubt more than 100 samples of any Cramer-Craft kit were produced - probably something in the range of 30-50 would be more typical. Everything I've seen is that the Cramer kits are -really- basic, or "crude" if you wish to be less kind - molded over hardwood male molds, they supposedly provide nothing more than the basic shapes with no detail at all - although the shapes are supposedly generally, if not always, pretty accurate. The Halberstadt D.II (it is a D.II and not a D.I?) was, according to my list, one of only two 1/48 vac-kits produced by Ken Cramer - a Curtiss P-1 being the only other quarter-scale example. While I've never seen this particular Cramer-Craft kit - nor, indeed, any Cramer-Craft kit - from everything I've read, this is NOT the type of vac-form kit one should select for one's first try at building a vac-form. Probably not even one's fifth or sixth try. On the other hand, you probably have a real collectors' item. Not particularly valuable on the collector's market but a real rarity none the less. I can't believe more than a couple of dozen of these vac-form kits still exist unbuilt considering the numbers which were originally produced. Indeed, it is not impossible that you might possess the single surviving example.

Use 30thou Evergreen plastic rod instead. Easier to drill for the rigging and just about as strong once rigged.
