Howdy Fellow Balsa Bashers,
Hope everyone is having a good flying season here in the Northern Hemisphere. I, also hope you guys south of the Equator are having a great building season and hope you can start flying soon. Summer is a great time for the staff here at RCSB to get lots of things done (when we are not out flying) here on the site.
First, like every summer, all our Admins and Moderators are in the process of cleaning up old threads basically removing the old "atta-boys" and old off topic discussions so when someone comes in to read the thread looking for information it s a focused chronology of a build or a discussion about a scale building/flying related subject. Don't get me wrong, we encourage participation and want lots of discussion in threads, This is just what we do "after the fact" always leaving the last couple of months of encouragement and discussion intact in a thread. Doing this makes the threads so much easier to read later and really concentrates the information for readers.
Next, as summer starts wrapping up here, I always look forward to every fall to see the new projects hit the building table or bench from you guys. If you are new to the site this year I hope you will consider starting a build thread this building season if you have not already. We can all learn from each other no matter what your skill level is.
For new folks who are just getting into scale building be sure and check out our Tutorials section on the site menu. There are lots of great tutorials and if you are looking for someplace to start be sure and check out Jerry Bates "Building From Plans For The Novice". It's a great introduction to building from plans.
That's about all I have this month. I hope you all have a great August and hope you are starting to think about that new model you are going to start this year if you are not working on one currently.
Cheers, Mike
