Dave,
Thanks. There are a few other people that are scaling the model down to 1/144. I started with a Flashforge but it was crap. I couldn't get rid of the elephant foot problem with the first layer no matter how hard I tried. I then bought a Prusa MK3 in kit form. It was easy to put together. You still had to fiddle with getting the first layer at just the right height but once I dialed it in the Flashforge was history. I have since upgraded the MK3 to a MK4 and bought another MK4. These printers are great. The first layer is automatically calculated, the servos are twice as accurate, the prints are twice as fast, the user interface was upgraded along with the computer, the print head is completely redesigned. One of the MK3 fans was defected and after talking with the help desk they overnighted a new fan for free from Prague. Overall I am extremely satisfied with this printer. Josef Prusa is really moving forward the state of the art in 3D printers.
Thanks for getting back to me and your recomadations. I am probably looking at a printer in the 400 to 500 dollar range like an Elegoo Neptune 4 pro 3D printer Printer. I am new at the game and just trying to figure out what I need. Again thank you for your help and I really like you LUT.

Thanks for the tip. Good price on the adhesive... but the shipping is $20+ CDN. The place I ordered from has a flat rate of $10 for shipping, and free shipping for orders over $60 CDN. I will browse around more on greathobbies.com to see if I can find cheaper shipping for future orders.
Do you pick up orders at the store? They're close to where you live.

Thanks Jim, I am going to be building an F-111B using the Academy FB-111 and the CAT4 detail sets that I just got so CAT4 should help to fix the intake problem.

Is the Academy FB-111 pretty much the same kit as there F-111C. Are they both long wings?
Thanks;
