AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF OPERATING THIS  WEB SITE AND SLOWLY BUILDING UP THE CONTENT, THE ONE THING WE DID NOT ANTICIPATE WERE  THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH MAINTAINING AND UPDATING OUR SCALE MODELING TEACHING WEB SITE. 

WITH THAT SAID, WE ARE  ASKING FOR DONATIONS TO DEFRAY THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH KEEPING THIS WEB SITE GOING AND CONTINUING TO ADD TO ITS CONTENT. 
ANY AMOUNT WILL HELP.

TO KEEP THINGS SIMPLE WE HAVE ADDED A PAYPAL DONATION BUTTON
TO OUR WELCOME PAGE.
