Math used to be a progression, to go along with how children learned. Geometry, algebra then calculus. It was a time honored tradition. Common core throws all that down the porcelain receptacle. Kids come out of HS and most cannot add or subtract.

I like it quite a bit. I've been considering doing one. I have a partial '66 kit and would need to source a '62 kit. I like the hood scoop. Doing the hardtop is a must!

With a little care, great paint jobs can be done with anything. The keyboard warriors are quick to join in the blind rhetoric on any modeling facet. -

That is radical as it gets... well done! Keep the updates coming.

I'm back on FB after a 6 year long break. Mainly for model stuff. I pretty much lurk or say very little. Here is MUCH better. The skill levels have a wide range for sure, but everyone is respectful and willing to help those in need. -
I worked in the R & D shop where doing the impossible was the norm. The smallest hole i drilled there was .006" on a miniature manual Levin lathe. The smallest drill I use for modeling is .013". I'm comfy with my #76 to #73 drills all day long. The shop I mentioned did drilling in ceramic substrates that were about 2.5 mm thick. They were triangular and about 8 mm on a side. The holes were as small as .003" and had to be on a tight location. Diamond drills, a mini drill press fitted with a microscope 🔬.

The first Karen I recall was in a cat related meme. -
This is my 1st time here. I'm generally happy and positive. Last night was our monthly model car club meeting. I get there 5 minutes early, the place is dark and everyone is standing outside. Usually the person from the county that opens and closes is there early or at 7 pm at the latest. Last night, nobody ever came. We stood around shooting the breeze, I left at 7:45. Somebody thought that they had the facility contact number in their phone, but they didn't. On the way home, I called my girlfriend and told her what happened. I think she was madder than everyone else combined. She is supportive of the hobby and knew I spent most of the day getting ready with my projects, food for the facility pantry, things I bring in for the other guys.

I go out of my way to pick the item without a barcode when I go to home improvement stores. The odds of TWO people being in line missing a bar code are slim... nice to be in control once in a while. Self checkout supermarkets... I always make sure I'm buying beer... so someone has to come over to help me. -
I really like it, has a perfect stance as well. Post more!

I agree, she is stunning. She was at the shelter with her sister, who is a straight up striped tabby with some red patches on her. That one is on the shy side. I'm not sure if she is a calico or a patch-tabby. I'm thinking patch-tabby. Our departed Chloe was a patch-tabby, great colors too. Like Chloe, this one has a brindle coat, not smooth at all.

I had a butter tub with a wire handle on it. The handle allowed me to place it in the dehydrator very easily. I'll have to make up another one.
