I would love to see building come back strong but as a lot said already the kits are few and far between. If these guys can't or don't assemble arfs they have no hope in building a kit or even more work building from scratch. Most of you know my wife has been very ill over the last few years. I sitting in her hospice room and just signed in to pass some time today before visitors arrive. Building will be my salvation when she is gone soon if the doctors are right.
