Ok, so I see this may be a popular idea!
I will start to research costs, timing, etc, as soon as Joe gives the ok.
Once I have the costs figured out, I will post my address for payment, but I will not take any money until I am sure I have someone lined up to do this.
It may take a week or so to line up the right person, maybe more to find a guy who can do a rush job for Christmas.
I will update as soon as I have any info to share, until then, keep the informal poll going, if only 20 people are willing to help out with this, that may not be enough to cover the builders fee.
Ken See gave me another idea, he said I should make a card with all the people who helped out with this, and I think that is a great addition to go with the model. So if you send money, or help out with other needs, you will get your name on the card. To keep it fair, I think I would list the names alphabetically, unless people want it by amount given, and then everyone can compete to see who gets the top name! :-)
Thanks for showing your support of Joe!

P.S. If anyone has the name of a good model builder, I would be interested in hearing about it. I would like to have more then the three options I have right now.
