I remember they also made a U.S. Gato in '72 as well....always wanted that one.....but where to put it? BTW nice to see you back😀 https://www.scalemates.com/kits/revell-85-0384-gato-class-submarine--158280 -

See, I told you that squirrels are survivors😀

Animals?.......I have an entire neighborhood of Squirrels 😀 They visit me in the morning and I distribute nuts which they take happily from my fingers. I have been introduced to the wonderful, weird, world of these animals. Their habits, behavior, and many vocalizations. I know, squirrels, big deal, but they have been a source of amusement for some time and I'm very happy for having them in my life right now. Also, there's a chipmunk that takes food from me. This little beast shows no fear, and seems to completely trust me.😀

Well done😀

Nice work Rob 😀. I was thinking of building a LED lighted war of the worlds Martian Ship by Pegasus......I saw where a builder used polyester filler, as used in pillows, to diffuse the LED light. I also found, on Amazon, some "Noodle LED" lights. These are lEDs in a silicone strand. They look like neon light tubes only flexible. I bought some of these....they look cool😀 -
Some items today.........😀 From FusionFirm, some of their LIQUID CHROME paint. Saw a YOUTUBE video about this stuff...Looked promising. From DSPIAE; some drill bits, and screwdriver bits for recently purchased ORBIT drill. Some Glue Applicators Also a couple of palettes, and some circle stickers😀 I have to escape the habit of blotting my paint brushes on my workbench....So, the palettes. Also, the circles are for marking model sprues...more visibly. I hope to avoid the searching for the needed sprue. Lastly, From Gecko Models; Their PANZER JAGER II fur Pak 40 Sd.Kfz 131 (Early Production) In 1/16 Scale. (16GMOO10). A big Marder . The box is stuffed with plastic-----don't know the parts count, exactly, but Holy Moly!! Anyway, I hope someone finds this interesting or useful😀

Yes I also found that with new drill my usual usb c cord bottomed out before it was fully engaged. I kept getting angry saying; "Where's the indicator light' until I found the supplied cord worked and a little extra push was needed. Then i saw the light😀 (the indicator light) Glad to hear you sorted it out😀

Looks Great😀
