Modeler’s Forum meets at 7:00 p.m. on the fourth Thursday of every month, except during November and December. Special meeting dates will be announced for those months.
The next Modeler’s Forum will be Thursday, May 26.
Come and join us! It’s basically a show and tell. Show off your model work, explain or demonstrate a new technique, bring that new tool we all want, or just come and socialize.
