Trophy preview
« on: July 21, 2015, 06:34:44 AM »
Last year NVCL started a new tradition of awarding hand-made trophies to the 1st Place winners at our contest in September.  I know that Phil Spillman liked the one he won which I had made.  So, I've made another.  But different...

Here's what happens when the gremlins get to you.  And anyone who wins a 1st place has had to have had this experience a few times....

Some people have way too much free time on their hands.
That is one crazy looking trophy. Everyone here would be proud to have that one.

John:

You know that Tim has already dusted off a spot on his mantle for it.  I'll have to practice extra hard and then make sure that Jack R is one of our judges  ;D

Hi Scott, You're very right about my pride in your last year's effort! I have been competing with models since 1963 AND YOUR'S IS THE ONLY ONE MY HAS ALLOWED IN OUR LIVING ROOM! I look up at it from time to time and remember Old Time Stunt with my Humongous! What a dream flyer that thing is! Happy times just keep hanging around!
