A big thank you to everyone here at Solid Model Memories for the honour of allowing me this wonderful award,but remember everyone here is helping preserve and maintain a piece of solid modelling history in their own individual way and the award is yours too,the techniques and materials we use are being recorded and passed down for our future generations so that they too can use their skills to produce bespoke wooden miniatures and reproductions,as own archives expand to preserve yellowed magazine plans a service is being done for us all,best of all a sense of belonging to a unique group with some excellent craftsmen on board for which we can feel very proud of.
Thank you gentlemen,I feel deeply honoured and very humbled to receive this award.
Barry aka Balsabasher.

Congratulations Barry.  Keep up the good work as the eyes allow but don't overstrain them.....they're the only ones you've got.

True words Mark,I think that computers do more harm to the eyes with the glare from the screen,one thing that I must invest in is a decent dust mask,it gets and settles everywhere.
Barry.
