[quote user="Iceman_c27"] All I can offer you my friend is some hard earned life experience.  Since you are still young, learning different ways of doing things is good but cutting corners is bad.  Just remember that.Seriously, try to do everything  in life properly or don't do it at all.  At the end of the day, cutting corners won't achieve anything at the end.I think you should change your way of thinking slightly, perhaps get a second job to achieve what you want.Just thought I help you out this way in life.  You may hate me now but hopefully you will thank me in 10 years time.[/quote]While some of your advice to the young man may be beneficial, I would say that because he is only 16 years old that his top priority right now should be his education and working hard to achieve excellence in high school.  The hobby is good, but the key focus and time should first be spent on education - that is what his future will depend on.   The request to accomplish some of his modeling activities inexpensively does not always imply that a corner will be cut and quality or appearance of the final product will be compromised.RR Redneck, keep up with your schooling first and the rest will follow.  Enjoy the hobby the best way you can and in the most affordable way you can.
