FAQs Any Questions/Comments?

Jun 24I'm still here, but my interest in political events (both here in the UK & internationally) are keeping me away from model making. As a result, I've made virtually no progress on the Skyway diorama since returning from my holiday.

Vollmer Weather Station Update: Much to my surprise, this model does actually appear to function. Almost within days of finishing the model I noticed that the two figures (mounted on the bar that's suspended by a thread) started to change positions. Since then, the figures move almost daily. I'll have to try and make a time-lapse video showing this.
Jun 8There haven't been any site updates for several weeks because I've been away on vacation. Each year in late Spring, apart from visiting the usual theme parks in Orlando, I try to visit several parks in other parts of the USA. This year it was Texas' turn. Amongst other tourist attractions, I visited Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags Fiesta Texas & Sea World San Antonio. Of the two Six Flags parks, I think I preferred Over Texas - mainly for the greater overall variety of rides. I have to say though that I was bitterly disappointed with Sea World San Antonio and have to agree with many of the negative reviews posted on TripAdvisor.
I haven't quite decided which State to visit next year, but at the moment it's a toss up between California and Pennsylvania.

Over the next few days I'll dust off my Skyway diorama and attempt to complete it.
