Shows, Expos & Conventions

The following are events that we will be either exhibiting, attending or the show simply deserves the extra attention.  Shows are a great way to meet fellow enthusiasts, collectors and friends.  Below are both shows for real machinery and toys and models.  Toy shows/swap meets used to be the main way for collectors to find models for their collections but since the advent of the internet they have shrunk considerably.  The toy shows that are doing well now are more than just a swap meet.  They are fun events that also offer seeing things you would never see otherwise.  These shows include seeing real equipment, custom models, radio controlled models and the opportunity to meet fellow enthusiasts to discuss the latest news or laugh over jokes with.  Just make sure to bring your camera to these shows!
