Mik, did not know you had the thread here too, I think I have a project or two that can be done(*) by Friday.

* done = 80-95%, like all projects of my lifetime

I had to backtrack on everything I accomplished today because I got in a hurry…

Please tell me I’m not the ONLY person who’s had to tear something halfway back apart to reglue the stupid weights, just because you unthinkingly flipped it over to put the trucks on BEFORE the epoxy was completely cured… And then managed to break (and had to remake) some pretty nice details because THAT glue was already rather hard. Please? Anybody? 'Cause I’m feeling really stupid just about now.

I only watched about 10 minutes of that game - can’t agree more, but I was rooting for the Jets so it’s a darn good thing he did.

Sure!
Not as much as when I first started this racket, tho.
But I’m always gluing my fingers together or running a drill bit into them. :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Maybe the kicker was too? Wouldn’t be da first time somebody MIGHT have purposely played below their best, even in Cincinnati

Psssssst, son… Nice baggage car… :slight_smile:

Nice build Rooster. A couple more would help with the consist

Darn,
As was said ealier I’ll not even have my shop back by the 15th. Thought I could until the flood happened yesterday…the joys of home-owner-ship. The ship almost sank. Damn toilets. Spent the better part of yesterday cleaning up that mess. I’ve got several project I’d love to do and get finished But…alas not this go around. Do ti again next month Mik and I’ll join in.
Honestly that’s not a bad idea though. A monthly Scratch contest. Start with nothing but scraps and stuff you already have and see what you get in two weeks or less.

Starts monthly and goes for two weeks and with two weeks for folks to re-coup and re-group and do a bit of planning.

Lets open a new thread with the results and descriptions. Leave this one for banter.
