   Hello;

 

                  I live up in Maine, USA.  I also make a lot of models and toys out of wood.  Lately, I have been very ill with my heart and lung condition.  I have been passing a lot of time making a lot of paper model aeroplanes which I download from Fiddlers' Green.  Hopefully, some day they will offer a few boat and ship kits.  When my health improves, I hope to be back out there selling a lot of my wooden work at various craft fairs in Central Maine.  Always good to hear from other model makers.  Ours is a universal language.
