Just reporting in. I am working on that Trumpeter 1:350 USS Essex Carrier in late WW2 configuration. I'm adding all the bells and whistles like I did on my USS Missouri project of 6 years ago. Meanwhile, I put something up for sale on the "For Sale" forum. Check it out.
Once Andre is able to do my cutting I'm back in the structures business. With the help of my computer-genius daughter in law I was finally able to get Windows running on my Mac and now have Corel Draw on my Mac. I was touch and go, but I persevered. Corel Draw is a better vector drawing platform than Adobe Illustrator. Having both running simultaneously really shows the difference. I've now stopped my $20 a month subscription to Illustrator, and can now send Andre native Corel Files for his laser cutting. This will enable him to make corrections more easily if they're needed. It cost me $200 for the Corel upgrade (since I was a licensed holder of Corel Draw 5, I was eligible for the upgrade) so already saved $40 for this year and $240 a year going forward. I can also work on all my old Corel files without converting them.
