Cool photo, Pete. Thanks for what you did! Sounds like a plan. BTW, it's nice to hear someone speak proper Southern. Folks from other places might wonder why you said "might could". I would have said it exactly the same way. 😊 -
That is an amazing piece of work. I watched the videos on the benches. (I'm a woodworker, so those caught my attention.) Beautiful craftsmanship. I was wondering how you did the chamfers on the center stiles on the front panel of the outside benches. Your layering technique was brilliant. I hope to watch more of the videos as time permits.

Thanks, Peter! I also built one of these as a teenager. It is also long gone. I brush painted the camo in the same scheme as this one. It had the cool "jet engine sound" which I played with maybe twice. I didn't include that on this one, so if anybody wants the parts for the noisemaker, just let me know. -

Thanks, Pete! Cool video. Did you fly BUFFs or KC-135s? The closest I have ever come is riding as a passenger on a 707. Yeah, even the 1/48 fighters aren't too bad. You're a lucky guy! So, all I have to do is jack hammer up my concrete floor, and dig a basement. No problem!😁 -

Thanks, Dave! I know what you mean, "someday" is when I built mine. Thanks, Rusty. -

Thanks, Jim! I managed to find space for my finished 1/72 Space Shuttle, B-1, XB-70, and this BUFF. But I was just looking at my stash, and in addition to the ones I mentioned in my first post, I have a 1/72 B-47, a 1/100 Concorde, and a 1/48 B-58. Also a couple of 1/72 C-130s. I'm going to have to put an addition on my house! -

Thanks, Ricky! I also think they are beautiful. Hearing loss is too high a price to pay, but it must have been spectacular. -

Thanks, John! I imagine hearing one of these take off would be an experience! Thanks, Joe! The B-36 I have is the old Monogram one. I thought this 1/72 B-52 was big, I can't imagine one in 1/48! Thanks, Mark! Thanks, Larry! -

Thanks, Ray. I like to build a plane and a car at the same time. That way I have something to work on while paint or glue is drying, and I don't get confused about which parts go to which model. Finding a place for the fighters is usually not so bad, they're the size of maybe two cars. But these bombers are another story. -
This is the first model I've finished in almost two years, and I started this one almost a year and a half ago. Hopefully I'll be back on the horse soon, there's a bunch of cars I want to build. This is the old Monogram 1/72 scale kit. As you can see, it is too big for my "tarmac". To give you an idea of the size, the Valiant is 1/25 scale. I've got two more of these, one with the X-15, and I would like to do a SAC version. I also have a 1/48 B-36, and a 1/48 B-29. I don't have any idea where I'll put them all.☺️

70 or 71 Chevelle SS 396. Fully restored. Woman driver with the vanity plates "SHE VELL". What a lovely sound!
