I had the honor to speak with Jim and see his master piece.
Jim is dedicated to building not just a model of the
Fitzgerald, but a miniature copy of the real thing.
Although he still has a long way to go, he holds a level of
detail not see to often. The sample hatch cover he has made
is the best I have seen. This is going to be one beautiful
model when completed.
