OOO-28 underway - DONE!

Post by rhagen »

Finally finished my first kit - a OOO-28 from John Hall. I started in October 2010 and finished it yesterday. There were at least 2 months in there where I had other commitments and couldn't work on it. I made it for my 12-year-old daughter, and wanted to have it done for her birthday - I only missed it by one month!

I'm real happy with the way it came out. The finish could be better, but I learned a lot for the next time!

Thanks to the folks here who answered my questions, and to John Hall for email advice.

#1 turned out great Rick. And you didn't even mess up your shop building it, amazing!
Your daughter looks real sweet to.
Now get in there and make another.
