If you're ever in the area of 50 and 436, check out Bob's Hobby Center over on Goldenrod Rd.
It's a neat little store. Steve is the owner and he as well as the staff are very friendly.

Yeah they have a great shop. They even painted the floor to look like a runway which was a neat touch.
Are you in Florida too?

Everything I want comes from the local hobby shop. I may occasionally make a deal with someone on here, or StuntHangar to procure an item that I can't live without, but I don't buy from on-line retailers-And I've been completely satisfied. They must understand where there paycheck originates.

Invite them to go flying with you, so they can see 1st hand, what their support allows. They may then develop an opinion that this is something people CAN do, and they should get on the bandwagon. At the least, ask them to hang one of your C/L planes from their ceiling, so customers can see what one actually looks like-in person!

There are approximately 5 Hobby Shops in this area: A "chain" store, with the cellphone ckerks, and ARF inventory, a long-established Mom & Pop Shop that is now being carried by gun and shooting supplies, I think, A very good Model Train store, a Science Education Center-that has a focus on rockets and telescopes and glass equipment and school stuff, another Shop has their thrust as R/C Cars and stuff, and the one I frequent is one guy and his 13 year old son. Cribbs knows this one. Oh, and there's one in Derby that I heard is set-up for day care and Home Schooling. I've never been in that one.

But, the point I'm making here, is: You can get anything you want, at one of our local shops. You don't have to get on a computer, to get stuff for your hobby. Just drive down here, or turn over there, there's even a shop that deals with RailRoad Tracks. Yeah, you can get anything you want, at our local hobby shops!
