Default I think I've been collecting too many kits....

I needed to update my inventory spreadsheet - I realized it had multiple errors.
And I decided to reorganize the storage tubs by vendor

So while everything was out, I took a group photo!

18 years - 59 different manufacturers (well, 60 if you count me and my scratch builts)

If you've been collecting too many what does that say about me? I've got over 450 kits!

59 manufacturers?! I DO believe it but I had no idea there have been so many! I can probably rattle off 25 or 30, but not 59.
