Re: tank kits [TANKS]

Steve,

My tank is further along than it was, but still with a ways to go.  I 
moved and changed jobs last year and havnen't really had much time or 
space (with a garage full of stuff to be unpacked) to devote to it 
since.  I'm hoping that this winter I will be able to really charge back 
into the hobby!

Well, it seems great minds think alike!  Your router looks great, and 
looks like it solves the sheet size issue mentioned earlier.   I really 
would hate to step on your toes at this point, but maybe two kits are 
better than one ... what are your (and everyone elses) thoughts on that?

I don't know, perhaps I will just pursue a tank kit to build for myself 
then, just to see how it would turn out.  If you find some bits that 
might be better done with a laser system (gears, detail work, etc), drop 
me a line - maybe we can team up without competing. 

have you played with sketchup at all?  I really love it so far ...

Brian
