Well, I have to say that this afternoon, I received my Finescale newsletter and was very pleasantly surprised to see that my thread detailing my repairs to my Sa 16 Gopher was referred to in the newsletter! [:0][:I]
I feel very honored that the Editor was willing to show my post. I never expected anything like that to happen. [:)]
I want to say thank you to the Editor for linking to my post and I appreciate that you thought it worthy of mention.
Thank You!
Duke -
Life is full of little surprises like that! I remember getting a letter in the post from FSM - and the envelope contained a cheque!! Turns out that I sent an email with a building tip that they thought was worth publishing - that was really cool.
Imagine, getting paid to do your hobby…
I’ve had 2 topics I started featured in the newsletter with a link (different issues). I was both suprized, and honored at the same time.
Congrats Duke.
Don’t mention it, “Duke.” It seemed too good to allow the tide of subsequent activity on the forum to bury it before more people saw it. I liked the way you worked the images into the original post to illustrate your points. [tup]
Congrats, Duke!
Thanks Lawrence! That means alot. I wanted to show the work as if everyone were standing behind me watching the step-by-step. Besides, taking the pics helped to buy time as I waited for things to dry and while I considered my next step.
Too bad my camera doesn’t take magazine-quality pics. That would look cool in the FSM! Still, I am honored to have been recognised in the Newsletter. Thank you again Lawrence!
Maybe when I refurbish my next model, I’ll do it again. [;)]
Thanks also to all others who replied. You guys deserve the recognition, and I agree: it feels good!
enjoy the feeling duke. you deserve it.
