Wow, what a great turnout of IPMS Ottawa members and their kits. We had about 40 attendees, and 28 models entered in the contest. Discussions ranged regarding safety with resins working; 3-D printing; mould-making; and the future of after market parts in an age of 3-D home printing.
Now get ready for the 2019 "Canada Day" theme contest on Wednesday 03 July 2019.
