Home of the 'Minute Models' and similar small(12 inch or less wingspan) model airplanes. The first 'Minute Models' that we encountered were a series of small simple quick to build models designed by Herb Weiss. Similar models are: "Nickel Scale" by Comet and Hi-Flier and others, and post WW2 ten cent models by Comet. Another simple and quick to build series of models were the Guillow's 'Zip' models, both the rubber powered and cat launched versions. The Guillows DC series are also a delightful group of 'minute models', as are the other 'root-canal' nocals.

**********************************

The 2008 Cookup for 'root-canal' models has ended. There were five participants in the cookup and twelve models built. The models can be seen in the 'Cookup 2008 Root-Canal' picture album. Thanks to all those that participated.
