    Thank you all for the warm welcome. This really does seem to be a wonderful community. I've been browsing old threads and it's really heart warming to see the "good vibes" here. Much appreciated.

        What are your interests? Aircraft, tanks, ships? & what have you got stored away in your stash?
        Dave
        Out of curiosity myself (it's been a while since I checked) I went to find my stash list. Alas I could only find one page, listing box "2", somewhat cryptically. There are four boxes this size and a couple of smaller ones too.... That means I have another job to do soon, re-cataloguing them all.

        The contents of box 2 are:
        Scale Manufacturer Kit Nationality
        1/35 Tamiya 6Lb Anti-tank gun set GB
        1/35 FiTamiya Field Car Gaz RU
        1/35 37mm gun set DE
        1/40 Armour car sdkfz 222 DE
        1/35 Panzerkampfwagen IV (G) DE
        1/32 Airfix Monty'shumber GB
        1/35 Tamiya BMW R75 w/ sidecar DE
        1/35 Tamiya 7.5cm anti-tank gun DE
        1/76 Airfix Boars gun and tractor GB
        1/35 Revell VW KubelwagGB (type b2) DE
        1/35 Italerai 76.2mm anti-tank gun RU
        1/35 Tamiya Jeep 4x4 (Jeep willy) US
        1/35 Airfix 155mm howitzer US
        1/32 Airfix Half-track sdkfz 250/3 DE
        1/35 Tamiya Army ambulance rover 7 GB
        1/40 Bandai MKII Valentine GB
        1/40 UPC 105mm gun US
        1/35 Airfix Dodge personnel carrier US
        1/35 Airfix Dodge command car US
        1/35 Airfix White M3A1 scout car US
        1/35 Airfix Chevrolet 15cwt truck & gun US
        1/35 Airfix Bedford QI gun turret GB
        1/35 RGBault? Opel mauser sdkfz3 half track DE

        The three without manufacturer's listed are Japanese kits. Nittto or Nichimo perhaps?
        So what with the other boxes there must be well over a hundred kits in the stash. As I said though, I'll be focussing mainly on 1/32 and 1/35 armour, vehicles, AFV's and 54mm figures.
        I have just ordered another 50ml bottle of extra thin cement. I wonder if it's enough?

              Wow, stash and a half! You do know that as fast as you can build you’ll still buy replacements twice as fast don’t you :tongue-out3:

                    Howdy Dale, make yourself at home and dig into that stash and start a build thread. Looking forward to seeing how you progress in the hobby. Rick H.

                      Faster ... well, that's my experience at least! And, of course, welcome Dale! That stash looks like a deposit on a man-cave!

                        Finally started to build a kit! Inspired by browsing the forum, and seeing all the awesome work here, I bought some extra thin, and got stuck in. The build thread is here. It's a basic OOB build of a 1/35 Dingo MkII by Tamiya.
