Today is "Day of model building"

At least in Germany

A special day which was initiated, amongst others, by Faller and Revell. Clubs and dealers who participate are listed according to postal code.

I’m sure that lot is interesting but you have assumed people may read German.
A lot do not…

In a pinch one can use Google.

At a pinch, but it is worse than trying to read Chinglish

Or Japlish, the language many of the copier service manuals are written in.

Never mind , we all speak double-dutch at times .

double-dutch? Well, I dunno about that, but I do speak mumble, gibberish, and I do technobabble from time to time. I used to speak racoon, but I am out of practice.

David,

A day of model building is a very nice idea, for those times when one runs out of inspiration for posts on the Internet.

Ducks and gets back to doing some house work.

So you don’t get much modelling done then ?

Mike

Mike, no not much. Lately its been computer, computer for work, honey dos, and home repairs. I hope to get back to modeling, thinks are starting to pile up in the workshop

David , I am retired and apart from medical treatment have the whole day to myself ; even so I do not get as much modelling done as I would like .

My problem , like many others , is trying to pick which project to work on .

Is yesterday’s paint dry ?

Has yesterday’s glue set (on another model) ?

Do I really feel in the mood for it?

Have I sufficient fingers left ?

What’s on TV (nothing any good usually , but the odd half decent programme slips in)

What colour scheme would suit ?

Hello , it’s lunch time and I have not done anything .

The afternoon proceeds in the same way .

Mike

My day will be taken up unburying the mine sidings that a squirrel buried, raising the track and ballasting. Will my building repairs count as modeling?

Mike, sounds like me on the weekends.

Doug, its train related, so in my world, it counts.

On “building day” I bashed a Woodland Scenics building kit into a bungalow on the HO micro and extended the lights into it. I have to admit I’m having a good time working on this.
