Plastic Model Mojo crew? We dive into the challenges of
maintaining our modeling schedules amidst the chill and share our
excitement for the upcoming model show season, including a
much-anticipated trip to Columbus, and  for the Moosaroo
Cup.

Our mailbag is buzzing with some great listener mail, like
one from Rock Rozak at Detail and Scale about their release of
the P-51 Mustang book series, or a short discussion on
decluttering, inspired by Jake McKee's keepsake dilemma, and

clear coats.
