Review

One of my favourite books, this book covers all sorts of model-making techniques from plastic kit models to railways and radio-controlled cars, planes and boats. Hand-tool techniques are covered, but the book does not extend to machine tool use.

The book is profusely illustrated, easy to read and full of information. Well worth having if your modelling interests extend beyond lathes and milling machines. Particularly useful if you want to make realistic scale models.
