New member from Germany ...
Hello from Germany,
Just want to say "hello" to everybody and leave a short note about me ... By chance I reached the cool website of SierraWest and found these great models .... and saw all your great work in this forum. Amazing .... I think this was the moment when I fell in love to these wooden wonders ... and ordered my own first kit (the Twin Mills). I hope that you will like my version although it will be one of the first kits like these in my life.
Until now I mostly build plastic or resin kits (preferable 1:35 civil dioramas with lot of weathering) and so on ... so this is new ground for me ....
Some words about me... I am 39 years old, living in Germany near Stuttgart. I am married and my wife and I are "working on our first kiddy at the moment"
I am working in the car business as sales guy of the export department, in charge for our dealers and private customers all around the world. A different hobby is creating my own website (www.world-in-scale.de) which is dedicated to my hobby as well ...
So far for the moment ... now I will sit back and wait for the postman bringing my wooden wonder to me
Cheers
Michael

Anyway Welcome!

You have found the best place to be to learn everything there is to know about the hobby. .............Carl..........
Looking forward to your first build here.
Brett asking Ed to that is like asking the fires to be out in CA.

We have a 17 day old daughter. Be forewarned, infants give a whole new meaning to hangry.
I'm new to this hobby as well, I'm on my second diorama.
Based off of the Titanic you built you'll be a good bit ahead of others of us who are new to this hobby
Also, when you start working on your kit... you will discover Bretts product kind of like a rabbit hole of awesomeness....
Titanic was really well done your going to fit in here just fine.

Welcome to the SierraWest Scale Models modeling community. We eagerly await some build postings and photos of your progress of the new SierraWest kit after it arrives.
Later, Dave Sarther Tucson, AZ (the land of Mariachi bands and music)
Thank you so much for your warm welcome! It is a pleasure to be here and to learn from you (I have read your topics uncountable times now)
Can't wait to get my first kits on my desk and start waiting
Of course I will share all progress once started! Don't be so hard with me and I hope that I could learn a lot more from you!
Cheers
Michael
well you know.
