Thread: Hello - new member, ready to build!

    Hello - new member, ready to build!

    Hey all,

    My name is Michael, living in Sydney. Just ordered my first kit - TL1. I built a partscaster about 7 years ago but am keen to go for round two, this time doing my own finishing. I'll start a build diary once the kit arrives

    TL1 would be a nice one to get started on.

    There is always a moment or 2 in any build, just take your time you will be fine.

    Thanks guys!
    Fretworn, I live in Waterloo. But only been here 6 months, moved down from Brisbane for work.

    Thanks Andy, too right. Is it strange that I'm looking forward to sanding?
