    Paul, any chance you could include 1/87 scale? Then PaulE would be able to join in should he wish to......

    Cheers.

          technically braille scale refers to 1/72 and 1/76

            That's fine Paul. Just thought I'd ask the question.

            Just to confirm. 1/72 - 1/76 only then, folks.
            Cheers.

              DMTBAA, but what do you call 1/285, 1/144, 1/100, 1/90, & 1/87? Technically, Missing-Lynx is just a forum like this one.

                This seems to me just a little bit pendantic, personally I would never use wikipedia as a reference, when I staered modeling in the 70's everything under 1/35 was referred to as braille scale in the after school clubs I attended.

                  I thought it just referred to things that were so small you couldn’t see them, so they were built by feel....hence “Braille”....

                      Let's not get going on the scale issue or the definition of 'Braille Scale'. This is about getting members to join in this G.B.

                      Paul has made his G.B rules as 1/72 - 1/76....So models in those two scales it is.

                        Sorry Paul our posts crossed. I was hoping my post might stop it any potential arguing.

                        We will close the thread if you wish but I find it it sad when the G.B. suggestions have only been going a few days and already we see a bit of friction.

                        What do you want us to do? Hurry up as I want my cocoa and get to bed......:thumb2:

                            I have a couple of 1/76 French Beutepanzers in the stash so I’m in....wasn’t trying to cause friction either...
