Model making is my hobby. I have enjoyed this hobby for many years. The parts in my shop were designed by me for my own projects. I decided to make them available for others to use.

Over the years I have been asked many time which items for painting and assembling my model I recomend. The following is some of the items I
use:

• Vallejo Grey Primer Acrylic Polyurethane, 200mVallejo Basic USA Acrylic Colors Paint Set, 17ml,
• Assorted Colors, 0.57 Fl Oz (Pack of 16)57 Grams (2 oz) 100/1500

The ASROC Missile is a solid fuel, rocket-propelled ballistic missile designed for standoff delivery from surface ships against submerged submarines. There are two basic missile configurations: (1) a rocket-thrown torpedo employing an acoustic homing torpedo as a payload, and (2) a rocket-thrown depth charge. In the torpedo configuration, the missile components are separated from the torpedo in flight and from that point, the torpedo enters the water and functions as though it was launched from an aircraft. The ASROC Missile is operational aboard cruisers, destroyers, and escort ships of the U.S. Navy. This missile was developed by the Naval Ordnance Test Station, Pasadena, Calif., and the Minneapolis Honeywell Regulator Co., Hopkins, Minn. There are many manufacturers of the ASROC since it is produced as individual components rather than as a complete unit. The components are then assembled into missiles by each issuing Navy activity.
