Well I,m pleased I,m not the only one.I presume like me you do it when the house is empty.

I agree with your description generally,except on one point: the UFO Saucer.Not one commercial manufacturer or model maker (professional or otherwise) has produced an accurate replica of this craft.Even the very talented model
maker Martin Bowers (who has made all different models from the Gerry Anderson shows-and has a fondness for UFO) made a model of the saucer which was a parody of the original.However if you would like to make an ACCURATE miniature replica of the saucer,go to the SHADO website and download the instruction booklet and
the template sheet.
You will need microsoft word on your computer.If you don,t have that,you can go to the FABGEAR website and download it in PDF form.It is located in the UFO discussion forum.
Good to know another model maker interested in UFO has joined the forum.
