On The Tables October 2023
As I was preparing to post the November meeting photos I realized I didn’t post October yet! Oh well, better late than never…
In Remembrance: Bill Dingle
It is not easy to do this, as I regret to inform you of the loss of one of our close scale modelling friends. William (Bill) Dingle died suddenly and unexpected earlier this week. We have not only lost a close friend, but we lost his talents as a master modeller in the 1/72 armour model community. He was well known internationally as a great modeller and great friend. He was a true friend personally and will be deeply missed! Bill helped found AMPS Fort York and has been instrumental in supporting and contributing to IPMS Toronto.
Bill leaves behind a loving family, with his mother (Jean); sisters Melody and Becky; brothers Duane and Bobby; nieces Sarah and Kayleigh (and her husband James); great-niece Margot; and great-nephew Jensen. Our hearts and condolences go out to his family.
At this time, there will be no service as we leave the grieving to his family. Bill, keep building up there!

Important: Zoom Meetings Discontinued
Dear IPMS TORONTO Zoom friends.
We regret to inform you that we will be cancelling our monthly Zoom calls. While this is a difficult decision, we just do not have manpower to manage both monthly in-person and zoom calls. We may bring them back if we get help in hosting these zoom calls.
So thank you for your great participation, and hope to see you in person one day!

On The Tables September 2023
September finds the IPMS Toronto club meeting at a new location, new day of the week, and a new time! One thing that didn’t change is the high quality of the work brought out by our members.
Important: New Meeting Location and Schedule!
IPMS Toronto meetings are on the move again! Per the details in the flyer below, we have secured a new meeting space and have rescheduled the meetings to the first Wednesday of each month, back in the traditional 7-9 timeslot. Info has also been updated on the Meetings page of IPMSToronto.com.
On The Tables August 2023
The August meeting saw a fabulous guest speaker (seminar to be posted soon) and the usual tables full of high quality work.
Video: Building the Yamato
Join Harvey and Dave of the Garage Studio Modellers as they discuss Harvey’s recent build of the massive 1/200 Yamato. This is an impressive build that you won’t want to miss!

August Guest Speaker: Steve Mercer
Be sure to join us in person on at our Aug. 14 meeting to hear a presentation by Steve Mercer, former member of the Canadian Armed Forces.
“Steve joined the army in 1990 when he was 19 and left the service in 2010, remaining a Dragoon for the duration of his army career.
During his service, Steve was deployed to the Balkans for 8 months in the mid-nineties where he saw action first hand.
From a modelling perspective, he grew up in Markham and built his first model at age 6 – today his main subject interest is aircraft.
Today Steve works for Porter Airlines where he is a heavy equipment instructor, receiving his certification shortly after retiring from the armed forces..
Steve currently lives on a 50′ cabin cruiser in Pickering with his wife Sandra who is originally from QC.”

Our July meeting and flea market was one of our best-attended meetings since the return of in-person get togethers. Lots of fabulous work on the tables.
