Thanks to guy s like Animal, Sabot, Gunny and AJ I am tackling my first all resin kit. I have read their advice on how toos and learned a lot. Just got my M123c tractor truck in and started it. It was a bit intimidating to open it up and to see all those parts and realizing how much cutting and trimming would be required. But thanks to our "pros" I am swimming along nicely. That is what makes this site what it is and I'm quite proud to be associated with it
God bless us every one
