Rocker Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Hi fellas I'm new here as of yesterday and as a former experienced web designer and hoster of forums I'm acutely aware of posting in the incorrect forum so may I ask a few questiosn here please; 1 - Being new here and new to modelling, is there a forum especially for newbies so I don't impose my probably tedious immature and potentially 'stoopid' questions amongst the more experienced crowd - or not? 2 - I have questions about the 'better' companies to use for kits and tooling etc to avoid spending a (currently non-existent budget) on frankly cheap poor quality products. I appreciate that if it does the job then fine no matter the price. 3 - I see you have a forum/list of 'shops manufacturers and vendors' May I ask are they forum sponsors or can I expect to have answers by members who have no vested interest in promoting their own wares or promoting or others companies wares? 4 - I'm at the stage of trying to source a cheap work surface to install into my front room of a 2up-2down terrace so there is the level I am at. Thanks fellas if you can assist me with these hopefully basic questions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ade H Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) Ah, welcome. Any question is appreciated as long as it's in a reasonably logical location. Any questions about tools, for example, can go in the tools section (scroll down a fair ol' way to the end of the section headed Modelling). Questions about kits are best placed by genre: for instance, ask general questions about car kits in Vehicle Discussion and AFVs / trucks in Armour Discussion. Questions about particular kits would probably attract the most traffic in the genres-by-era sections. To get to know your way around, just peruse the titles of all of the many sub-fora on the main page. To Q3, I'm not sure off-hand. Q4 is a bit difficult to place: could be Tools, perhaps. Ikea makes a lot of cheap but good desks. Edited August 26, 2017 by Ade H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhouse Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Welcome to Britmodeller. It's all very friendly here and if you post on the 'wrong' forum then the worst you'll get is a suggestion to move your post to the 'right' forum. I suggest you go and read some posts in forums based on your subjects of interest. You'll probably find answers to your questions have already been posted. I hope you enjoy the forum. It's a friendly and very informative corner of the web. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnie Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 (edited) As @Ade H said, the forums are laid out in a very logical way. Most of your questions can be answered by Google. It can help if you include Britmodeller in your search. As for Q4 . Just enjoy and learn from members. BTW. Welcome Edited August 27, 2017 by Vinnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
