Our forum and hobby has suffered a great loss!!

So sorry to hear this, Fred was the one that made all of this possible. All the great builds, all the great products made and sold here that have improved the hobby so much, all of this because he gave us all a home after the garden closed. He made some truly unique models, one of a kind stuff. My deepest sympathies to his family.

I have been out of daily touch with the forums recently. I had been a daily visitor once Freddy gave us a place to share here after Ric folded his forum. So much so that I rarely Scale and became a mod here. I traded a lot of PMs with Freddy and a few phone calls. He was always quick with a joke or ball busting, but very helpful with parts and builds. We talked about his possible move to AZ that never happened and I'd hoped to hook up with him once he moved here. RIP friend and best wishes to his family and close friends.
