rjbranchii, I recently started a thread hoping to generate some interest in scratch building some of those "logs" I hear what you are saying about building these days but you might have a different mind when it comes to such a simple model like one of the logs! I hope you do.
here is a link to that thread:

All are certainly welcome!

I do hope C/L is moving upwards in popularity. It never caught on where I come from. there were flyers, but no organization and you just flew where you were not run off from.
