Sterling or Walt Umland's kit?

I have the latter.

If you do a little bit every day it will get done, or you can do it tomorrow.

That would work Douglas, I have a poorly built Sterling Imperial I am going disassemble and build properly so Walt's will be fine. I will send my address in a PM.

Hey, the Sterling kits wore the greatest thing going in the day.   At least the early kits taught you how to build and finish on one sheet of paper.

I will mail the patterns today. Including the ones for the doublers and fues bottom cutout and doublers. The Sterling kits were the laser cutting kits of the day. A huge improvement over print wood kits. Mine has nice wood and all the die cutting was done very well.

Thanks Don I really appreciate it!!! Not sure I agree with the improvement over print wood, but that's a personal preference. I have had some very nice Sterling kits over the years, by the law of averages it had to happen from time to time. Now if you guys wanna talk BAD, let's talk about Berkley kits!!!!
