Thanks for your kind words regarding my modeling. Your name sounds familiar, as I
think we might have crossed a path or two from being on the RR Line Forums. Didn't you
do some stone structures from the Thomas A. Yorke collection?

I did some stone structures on RR-L but not any from the Thomas A. York collection. I mostly work with Sculpey modeling clay (the kind you bake in the oven). I did a SBS on how I made stone blocks using clay. I don't remember if I got around to posting any builds. I think I did one on the sea wall on the water front.

Yes, Phillip, thanks for asking. I'm slowly getting back to modeling.
My problem now is if I sit too long at my workbench, my leg swells up on me.
My Doctor says it will take a long time to heal fully, so I do a little, walk around some,
and do a little more. If I do too much , my CEO will have me doing another 1:1 project. 
And we don't want that    I might do another update in a couple more days.

Rich glad to hear you're feeling better but ease into those 1:1's; you wouldn't want to mess that leg up.

[Philip]

Good news!

I hate 1:1 projects

Glad the leg is feeling better.
