Congratulations to both John and Jeff on the impending retirement. Next time, John, lunch is on me. Heck, I'll buy Jeff lunch too but he has to come to Central Florida to collect.   8)

I did manage some workbench time yesterday.  I'm feeling better even if I don't sound it. Hope for more workbench time tomorrow. 

Have a great one!

Afternoon all,

Still getting over this bug. I'm feeling a little better but still don't sound too good. 

Here you go, Karl. You may need one of these. We have no use for them in Florida.  ;D



Have a great one!

Morning all,

Kind of a wasted week on this end. Zero workbench time. The flu will do that to you. It's not a worst-case scenario flu, but it's been enough to keep me away from the workbench. Hopefully today or tomorrow I'll be able to muster up enough energy to pull out the workbench and get something done.

Have a great one!

Merry Christmas all,

Opened our presents already. Wife gave me a few things from Inter-Action Hobbies. Junior gave me the flu.  :P

Have a great one!

Well dang! Had these two been out a few months ago I would have added one (likely both) to my X-Mas wish list. :) Well, there's always Father's Day, Birthday and next X-Mas to ask for them.  ;D

I saw this build, in person, over the weekend. It would scare me off for sure!  :o ;D

Morning all,

Sunny today. Should reach the mid to upper 70's.  8)

I think Jr. has the flu. It hit him last night, but it seems to be going through him pretty fast. He was vaccinated. Whatever it is, I hope he keeps it to himself.

Trip to the grocery store and then I think I'll pop in a movie and settle in at the workbench.

A picture taken in 2017 while attending the Expo in Altoona, PA. I miss the Expo's.  :(



Have a great one!

Morning all,

It's the better half's birthday today. Heading out for dinner this evening. A little football and maybe some workbench time between now and the.

Have a great one!

Afternoon all,

Just got back from a visit to Tom's place. Isn't quite the same without the Judge at the throttle but we had a nice chat about structures and kit building. Later on we're heading up to Mt. Dora to see the lights. Hopefully I'll be able to find a parking place.

Have a great one!

Awful news anytime but especially right before Xmas. Hopefully Bill will recover quickly so he can return to the A & S.

Morning all,

Karl, I have "Emperor of the North" on DVD. Great movie. I need to put that one on sometime this week.

The better half is going to cook up a big batch of pasta sauce today. The rule is anyone walking past the stove must give the sauce a stir while it's simmering. Tonight, some of it will be used for stuffed shells.

Think I'll watch football and get back to work on the pool hall this afternoon.



Have a great one!

Morning all,

Great picture, Jeff!

I'm not sure what's on the agenda today. My better half is going to a friend's house for a cookie baking session. Junior is heading down to SeaWorld with some friends. Guess I'll spend some time at the workbench.

Have a great one!

Really nice, Mike. Welcome to the forum. Maybe I'll watch the DVD I have on the Tropicanna Express tomorrow thanks to your excellent build.  :)
