I’m going to video her opening it. If it’s a good one I’ll post it to YouTube and link it here.

Every year for the past 10 years or so my youngest daughter has presented me with a Christmas gag gift. One year, a gold fish. Last year a cheap add on bidet. The list goes on… Earlier this year I was installing insulation panels in my garage door. One bottom panel wouldn’t go in place so I stuck my fingers down into the framework and pulled out a petrified Toad. Instantly had a brilliant idea. You see, my gag gift daughter is deadly afraid of frogs and toads. Even at 23 yo. So today I made her a Christmas ornament for her tree. Petrified toad After crafting out a cute little Santa hat, carved a styrofoam ball and applied some fake snow. closed up

I just bought a Revell tomcat and the correct movie decals to build right after I’m done with the group build. But I think you would have to build the Zero since it’s the plane that got wet! LOL! FWIW, it was pointed out to me over on ARC that these F-14’s had all over gull gray on the top and white bottoms. No white control surfaces on the top.

Update on finding wife’s stash…. We we’re packing up to leave Colorado Springs yesterday morning and I asked her were she put her winnings. “It’s in my purse.” Wheres your cash stash you brought? “It’s in my purse with it.” Are you sure?? “YES DAMNIT, LETS JUST GO!” Waving it under her nose…Then what is this? “You took that from me!” Nope, fell out of your pocket while stretching on the floor the other day. Cannot believe you never noticed it gone. “Just gimme that back!” As she snatched it out of my hand….

Same here. Was a very fun build. Also bought a second to build a Thunderbird.

Well I tried the capillary method. So little detail it got into the hub. Started punching out masks for the outside of the wheel. Inside won’t work so I’ll just dab on some white in the center

Solder wick. I was a professional solderer for over 30 years. 🤪 Brush on a little soldering paste (rosin) first and it will flow like water.

The look on Jerry’s face is priceless here if you know who he is.

I’d comment if it WASN’T there! But a grease gun. Oh man. My favorite.

I just got my wife’s leftover gambling stash. She got on the floor to stretch her back and it fell out of her pocket. Let’s just see how long it takes her to discover it’s missing.

Pffttt… Already tried. “You have enough already!”

Out in Colorado. She just hit a big one.

Welcome Dean. Looks like an interesting project. I’ll be watching this one!

(My Feelings deleted) let’s not turn this one into another political issue please. although a very political subject , I understand …Scott

And then come July we’ll kick of the “Christmas Raffle” group build!

I think it’s $600.

Here you go Ernie. Fill it out in triplicate, and we’ll take care of it

Had one of them offer me a date in Vegas one time. Told her I was good because that’s my wife sitting at that machine right there, as I was pointing to her. My coworker was known as the 40 yo virgin. Pointed to him, but that guy there, he could use your help.

Heck yea! Do it.

For the life of me, I cannot figure out how syfi story lines managed to put an ocean going ship into space and made it a space ship. And no, I’ve never looked into it.

Skynet is coming sooner than later…..

Interesting concept. Costs more, delivers half the payload. Probably gets the delivery done a lot faster though. Are they shelving the B-2 or will it stay active for specific roles? I wonder what the support time is per hour of flight vs. the B-2? So when will they start up a new B-52 assembly line. That’s the design I find amazing that has been redesigned and kept in service so long. I just saw the latest upgrades coming for it.

Yes Hubert, this country has become very polarized. It’s a sad situation. I’m going to leave the first comment up to Ernie if he wants to edit it further or delete it all together. So back to the subject at hand….How does the B-21 differ from the B-2? At first glance they look like the same aircraft.

Outfrigginstanding John! Knocked this one out of the park. That would look great parked next to my GSB Cougar. Now I gotta keep my eyes open if a kit comes up for sale somewhere sometime….

I almost chose my Kitty Hawk Kingfisher, but I’ve been jonesing to build a syfy kit for a few years now.
