Here's a chance to put your favorite hobby shop on for all to see (and find!) in NC. I travel around and would like to know where a great hobby shop is .
My favorite is: Hayes Hobby House at Eutah Village North off of Bragg Blvd in Fayetteville. They have a website and a club, Lafayette Scale Modelers. Check 'em out next time you're in our grid square.

Well, I'll chime in - Toms Trains in Raleigh is my favorite. It is a train shop so No model kits. But Tools, Woodland scenic, paints, glues, wood.

I will dovetail off of JCCraemers post and say that I most frequently visit the Hobby Chest in Jacksonville. He carries a wide array of plastic models and has just about every hobby genre covered.

The Hobby House in Hendersonville, and Carolina Art, Craft & Hobby in Asheville. Both run by great folks and if they don't have it on the shelf they can get you whatever you need.

I've spent nearly a billion dollars in these two stores Joel. You're right about both owners being great folks. Lenny, at Carolina Art, Craft & Hobby has given me numerous tips and technique hints over the years. The Hobby House has a website too BTW.

Negative. As far as I know there once was a small group of guys that met once a month when Model Mania was still in business but I haven't heard of anything big. If anyone DID start a chapter locally I'd join for sure.
