#0 sourceAs long as I'm handing out Kudos, I may as well mention Dick Byron!
I met Dick at Brodak's meet in 98 and hes a REAL nice guy! I traded a kit of mine for one of his Airplane Holding Stands. When I first looked at it, I thought that it might be another piece of junk but I was sorely mistaken!
His stand is well thought out, will hold almost any sized model securely by the motor mounts and allows you to rotate the plane for secure building or painting.
I traded mine away when I downsized and moved but I was reminded of it this last week when I visited a friend who is using one. Once you try one, you'll wonder how you got along without it, no kidding.
Further, I picked up a 40-VF on eBay ( Only $42.00! )and needed some venturis and so forth. Dick found time in his before-Nats thrash to send me some parts (The right ones the first time!) and threw in a bill.
Good stuff, great service and as much advice as you need!
Dick is one more good-modeling-nice-guy, who deserves our support ( Even if he IS from TEXAS-BY-GOD! )!
