Welcome to Silicon Dragons. If you are here, you probably would like to know a bit more about who runs this site and what we are about. OK, here goes:

Basically you have me, Joe Kutz. Thats it for now. I have been involved with miniatures and wargaming for over 20 years. During that time I have seen a lot of changes - but that is another story. I grew up on a farm in Wisconsin, joined the military, went to college, programmed computers, built websites, built houses, built cabinets and furniture and built show cars. About the only thing I never got bored with were miniatures and models - the next one is always different from the last.

Over the years I have also worked a lot with models and railroad layouts, related yet separate fields. That was when I first found out you could make money building little models for people. While I was in the Air Force I made models of pilots' aircraft for beer money. Times were good. Later on I began building individual buildings and eventually complete layouts for model railroaders.

Fast forward...a bunch of years, and we get to here. I've got a lot of ideas and tricks which I have picked up over the years and I want to get them out to as many people as possible. While this site is not designed as a commercial venture, I am planning on offering a few services through it to those who are interested. If you are interested, you can find out more on their related web pages.

Thats about it. If you want to know more, let me know either in our Forums or via e-mail and I'll be glad to fill in the blanks.
