We had a great meeting in January. We had a great turn-out for show n’ tell. Also, the Tie Fighter Group Build held its first meeting. Ethan Idenmill gave an introduction on how to add LEDs to model kits. Jerry Jackson gave a demonstration on how to use Rottenstone for weathering.
Special thanks to longtime member Dan King for taking photographs this month!
