    Back to the Basics of Kit Building


    Hang out with us in the PhlatLab as we go through the steps we take when packing our PhlatSTANG Kits. We share information on some of the tools and supplies we use. We also go through and talk about some Easy to use 3D modelers and Sketch-based modeling. Thanks for hanging out everyone and thanks for watching the recorded episode if you missed it live.

    Mark, sometimes I just want to hug and kiss you! Thanks for all these great links. :doubleup:

    OK, so maybe we'll skip hugging and kissing you and concentrate on Trish :fugly: :fugly:

    Edit: Just noticed that it was Trish that posted these links, so Mark, you are out of the loop! :D
