Hi skaliwag,
Check out your local Craft Brewery. (water, grain, yeast, hops)
I'll bet they are busy too!
I am lucky to have several LHSs to spend my money.
Picking through balsa racks is my 'other' hobby !
MJD, They know I have a list. Every LHS I've been to, has something I want!
And, are more than willing to order what I want, for me.
Ever since 'childhood' , I have 'put away' every week some money. Hobby money. For me, one day, to enjoy.
Back then, money was hard. Now, time is expensive.
I still think building is half of the fun, flying model airplanes.
(And they have to carry at least one #64 rubber band aloft ! ! !
)
Cheers my Friends,
Take care,
Have fun,
