Hi,
My name is Pat and,I'm a single father,machinist by trade and trying to get back in the swing of model building.Started about 40 years ago with a '72 GMC stepside.Been in and out of building ever since.Since I'm now a full time parent of a teenager I figured this is a good way to spend the little free time I have now.
Seems like this forum may just be my type.Have I mentioned that my favorite movie is American Graffiti?I remember seeing it at the drive-in with my oldest brother when it first came out.
Well,I'm off to check out what's happening here.
Pat

Welcome aboard Pat.
I think you will like it here. There are several of us that have fallen off the wagon and reconnected with our model addiction.
Look around, check out what's going on, and meet some new friends.
See ya around.

Not defending alcohol, but I have done some really stupid stuff while sober too.

Glad you made it over. And glad to see you're getting back into this hobby. Take a look around and start commenting on what you see and as soon as you're ready post some of your stuff. Welcome
