European builder's club? It would be a real european thing, since we continue to be french, english, italian and so on... it's time to produce solid facts, talking about europeism :-)
So, I am not a builder, yet. I am struggling to order the plans, for now (I stil do not master those procedures to send money abroad and I don't expect help from RR...) and will start studying as soon as I receive them. Oh, BTW, does anyone have some "electronic" sample of the plans or the manual? So to calm my thirst... Let's keep in touch, us "EuroKRs"!
