I'll grab some coffee and head down to the basement and the exercise machine.  Instead of the ebook I usually read, I'll watch a video on the big project that the professor from my last course sent me:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGRRbLVL37M  This is on 'gas hydrates' in the Gulf of Mexico.  That's really interesting stuff, methane that is compressed to where it is solid, and when it warms up and depressurizes (e.g. on the sea floor) it turns into gas (methane is both a good fuel and a nasty greenhouse gas.)

Good morning.

Dave, the video about methane in its hydrate form looks interesting.

I went for a ride yesterday afternoon to take advantage of a rare sunny day.  today we're back to the overcast dreary look that has predominated for more than a month.

I've been working on a couple projects that more or less stalled while I wait for primed parts to cure completely so I can proceed.  In the mean time I dug out a partly finished creamery project, though it too, is on somewhat of a pause for the same reason.  Not sure what direction I will go in today while I am playing the waiting game.

I hope everyone has a safe and rewarding day!

Morning, all.

I have finished up the FOS kit and will post on that later.  Need to clean up the area and find something else to work on.

Afternoon all , I am really struggling to get on with modeling, don't know how to get motivation back , and that doesn't just go for modeling.

Anyway , I hope you all have a great day.
I love photo's, don't we all.

Good morning!  I'm busy in the workshop this morning.  Jerry I always have 3 - 6 projects going at once so I wait long enough for the paint and glue to dry. I have tried staying on one project until I get it finished and it just doesn't work for me. You just need to figure out how you roll and keep rolling. 

Jan when I loose motivation I spend some time looking at the F&SM photographs. I hope it helps.

I hope everyone has a great day.
