Hi Dennis,

I appreciate you taking the time to write, and also for pointing me towards that article (I have printed it out). I will search around some more to see what else I can find in the way of "how to" articles.

Wow... 500 kits! I thought I had a lot w/ 20 <lol>.

  Robert,

  Vacuform kits are a lot of fun to build.  Of the 500 kits on my shelf,
  half are vacs.  I resisted building them for years but needed some
  variety in my building.  

  The easiest vac I built was the Wings 72 Hansa Brandenberg W-12,  No
  rigging, over 30 metal parts, decals and easy to build.  Four days to be
  exact.

  For a very informative tutorial on vac building, go to
  aeroclub-models.com go Modelling Articles then to Vacuform Modelling.
  John has come up with some very innovative ideas to make vac building
  easier.

  If you have any questions on any vacuform kit of the 80s, I probably
  have it on my shelf.

  Dennis
