thierry laurent Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Hi Harold. I'm very sad to read this as I know what this means to you. However, if something is sure that is the fact all of us are getting older. So, such a decision has to come one day or another. I really appreciated what we had the opportunity to do together some years ago and I'm very happy to be the proud owner of a lot of AMS sets including some unique prototypes. You filled a lot of market gaps to help others and I can only praise you for that! We will miss AMS products for sure! Take care my friend!

MikeMaben Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Hey Harold, I'm sure you've concluded it's not the end of the world as you know it. I have some degree of essential tremor too, and while it's frustrating, I fight it using ice packs and model on anyway. I want to thank you for the F-86 and T-33 improvements you created and hope you get a kick out of your retirement. Retirement is a good thing. Take care.

ScottsGT Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Hmm, it just dawned on me that Harold is the second to announce his retirement from the resin cottage industry. Mike West of Lone Star Models is also looking for a buyer. Harold, Martinnfb and BiggTim 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
