2026 and stashes ...

[PanzerWomble]

So , this year I've decided to work my stash down to 10 ....yes just ten boxes ...instead of the 20 that is my norm .

Ten is about a years worth of modelling unless I get really bored , it varies between 10/20 completions a year dependant on other projects, motorbikes , cars etc. 

Too many models bought on a whim , or because they were on offer, or for "nostalgia" , or because I had an bright idea at 3 in the morning 💡only to be 'Bayed 6 months later. I'm also a bit bored doing similar subjects repetitively . 

I've also set myself the task of one in - one out , so a bit like my yoof ; when you finished one and then thought about the next purchase , unless it was Christmas in which case you might have a few hanging around . 

I know this is anathema to the SABLE people , or "got to get them all" collectors, and that's fine if that's your thing , I'm not looking to convert or argue with anyone, just sharing my own journey .

FYI - On my shelf of finished models, is equally sparse , I only keep what I think of as 'best of the best' for me with the odd exception, so that's 14 in total , make something better ?..one goes . 

Last year I went with 'no tooling from 19XX' and mostly stuck to it & also 'no Airflups, Miniart or Revell' for ...reasons . 

I'll let you know how it went next January if ya bothered.
