Hi Guys
I recognize a bunch of old friends here from other forums I hang out on. I just signed up here and for the rest of you folks I thought that I should maybe introduce myself.

I 'm retired as both a nuclear power plant operator and a volunteer fire chief. I live on the eastern shore of Lake Huron in Ontario. I've been building models since the '50's. My main interests are emergency, construction, agricultural and commercial vehicles. I build in 1/24 &1/25 and most of my builds end up in dioramas. I do a lot of scratch building and modifying diecasts as well as kit stuff.

My current projects are: flatbed B-train lumber hauler, a rebuild of a DG Productions Topkick bucket truck as a Hydro One unit, and a scratch built gravel crusher for a pit diorama I'm working on.

I hope that I can contribute to the forum as well as pick up new techniques.

Thanks
Carl.
