 IM> I may not have the best models in town but I'll 
 IM> have the biggest shop :-)
 
I'm amazed at the size of the shop that I've developed over the years. I 
started model building with absolutely NO tools other than a single edged 
razor blade. Then I broke down and bought a drill press. Then a scroll saw. 
Next, a table saw. Then a shaper...and a power miter saw. Of course, I had to 
buy a wood lathe. Last Christmas it was a bench disc/belt sander. Finally, 
last June a compact 10" bandsaw. And my actual working surface is a converted 
pool table. Even added an extra 15 amp circuit and a stereo :-). It's all a 
far cry from the damp corner of the basement when I built my 1/4 scale Cub in 
1985 (my "shop" was so poorly equiped that I actually had to hand carry my 
vise to another room to do drilling because it was too dark to see anything 
in the shop!).
