Woodworking....... Armorama


Matt

Warhammer 40K (tabletop sci-fi wargame), Dungeons and Dragons online, reading (military sci-fi, fantasy, Clancy et.al, military history novelizations - Chickenhawk, Phantom over Vietnam, etc.), computer flight sims.

I really enjoyed Chickenhawk. Liked Centaur Flight too.

Where do I begin? My first love is RC airplanes. I prefer WWII warbirds. I have a 63" span P47 Razorback, a 63" span P39 Airacobra, an 86" span P38 Lightning(hence my screenname) not yet built, and an 86" span A26 Invader(on the building board at present). I also enjoy woodworking(mostly furniture), paintball, target shooting, and 4 wheeling in my 75 CJ5. I also enjoy researching the Second World War.

P.S. I am also a big Maryland Terrapin fan! Watched 'em win the BB title from the second level of the Georgia Dome. Course I also saw 'em lose in the Orange Bowl from the upper deck of Joe Robbie( I think that's the name for the stadium)

also, beside the figures, i am a voracious reader of wwll books on people, units and hardware. i have about 100 volumes.

i am also a reader of ww2 books
and do a lot of research on german vehicles

Ah, an old thread resurrected. Think I'll chime in, since I missed it the first time around.

I guess I'm afflicted by the ancient instinct to put food on the table. I have a small vegetable garden that I putter with all spring and summer. I also enjoy fishing -- mostly catch and release, but I'll keep a few for supper. I've been a hunter all my life. Grandpa was a gunsmith and I have a nice sporterized 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser carbine that has harvested dozens of whitetail deer, plus a few other sporting shotguns and rifles. I've been getting into bow hunting the last few years and have yet to take a deer, but I do enjoy the up-close-and-personal aspect of this type of hunting. Maybe this year ...
