This time you can finish and old model you had already had started. Dr.Cranky will let us know what else will be allowed on this one. I my self have decided to build a semi truck.

[ranma]

Which truck should I build? a Paystar 5000 or the a Paystar 5000 dump truck? Humm I wonder?

[Dr. Cranky]

Thanks, Rick, for getting us back into another one

Another 3-DAY BUILD, and this time you can build either something new or a project that's been sitting on your bench neglected.

There are no rules for this, but you can follow the same guidelines:

Saturday = cleaning up and primering the parts

Sunday = Painting

Monday = Assembling and detailing.

Working through the night is allowed.

Post all your progress pictures here to this thread.
Start thinking about what you will do, and you will have plenty of ideas by the time the 3-DAY WEEKEND arrives.

Doctor I think I will participate in this one. I work Saturdays until 4:30pm so I might need a bit of leeway if possible.

oh yeah!!! count me in doc!!! cant wait

[01blueedge]

I am in on this one just not sure what i will build this time

[Dr. Cranky]

Cool. Again, no rules, just stress-free building. Well, other than the time constraint!

[Peter Lombardo]

Here is a little twist that may, or may not, be appropriate for this build……being that it is Presidents Day weekend that this build is being proposed to be done over, what if the build had to be a vehicle with the same Name as a President? You know, Lincoln…..Ford………Cadillac (well, they still ride in them)......Chevy El Camino (Bill Clinton famously had one before his time in the White House….it had Astro Turf in the bed out back, just in case of an emergency pit stop with a cocktail waitress).

I know it limits the build subject a bit, but it certainly is relevant, isn't it?

Peter, I love the idea. That's very cool. Yes, I think that would be mighty fine!

[Dr. Cranky]

Plus, I wonder how many of you remember (and miss them!) the days of having 2 Back-To-Back 3-Day Weekends when we celebrated Washington's and Lincoln's birthdays. Of course, Congress put an end to that!

[Tony T]

You guys sure get a lot of long weekends in the winter! I could use a couple of those about now!!

[Rob McKee]

I'll join into this one.

It will likely mean I have 2 kits finished by the end of this one. I am proud to look at my completed Trans Am from last weekend.

[Dr. Cranky]

As you should be, Rob. You will be a couple of more models richer!

[hotrod59f100]

I'll be joining again. I had fun last time.

[Dr. Cranky]

Cool, hopefully everyone will have fun and build another model.

[martinfan5]

I will join in this one as well, I have a little bit of time to come up with something

[ranma]

Febuary is just days away and that 3 day build will be here before you know it! I hope we have more builders on this one.

[Dr. Cranky]

Rick, you are right about that. What happened to January, where did it go?

[Ira]

Sounds Like Fun!

[hotrod59f100]

Well Doc if rember correctly you took at least 3 of our days.lol can't wait. Do we have to keep the presidential theme?
