My model building days are coming to an end

[Tom Geiger]

Yes! Stick around, you’re family here!   And there are a kit of guys on the board who haven’t built anything in years!

Wonderful Carl. As a seasoned builder. Your advice to all of us about building is immeasurable. I'm glad you're staying on. :-)

Sorry to hear you're having problems Carl, but I'm happy that you're staying on the forum....

[crazyjim]

Health issues are a bummer, Carl, but I'm so happy to hear you'll be hanging around the forum.

[Nazz]

I'm glad to hear you will be around Carl I always appreciate your comments. I will keep you in my prayers and hope you can enjoy what parts of our hobby you can.

Pleased to hear that you are staying with us Carl.

[slusher]

I have not met you fellows but all of you guys are close friends and I enjoy being here with everyone...

[1930fordpickup]

Thank you Carl. I feel the same about you. 

[doorsovdoon]

Yeah, don't go! You were one of the first to greet me on the forum a couple months back and you always comment on my builds. I have lots of new builds coming, are you not entertained? haha. Seriously though, health issues suck balls, my cousin has a muscle disease and can't move without excruciating pain, it's horrible to see, closing yourself off from the world only adds to the pain. My thoughts are with you, man, they really are.

Glad you decided to hang around.  You're one of the regulars that always has good input or comments.   I have done this before for others and will offer again.  If you still build on things and get to a tough spot, PM me and maybe I can help you finish a few things that you might not be able to do.  I actually like foiling, so if you build it and need foil, PM me and we'll see if we figure a way I can help.  Anytime.

" THAT "......is exactly what makes this forum the greatest hobby place to be!!   Very amicable gesture Randy! 

Carl.....please let us know if any of us can do anything to keep you in the community. ....you've been here for others!   There are good people here for you!

 

[Tom Geiger]

Amen! A great community and it wouldn’t be the same without Carl around!

Hi Sir!

I've been on this forum for about 18 months, and I have witnessed firsthand your interest and positive attitude. It would be a loss for all of us if you were to turn to other interests.

An older gentleman that I worked with, many years ago, told me one day, when some colleagues were complaining that he was not as "productive" as he used to be: "you know guys, at some point it is not what you do, it's what you know". 

How right. So Carl, please, keep roaming the halls, and don't be shy of your comments. 

Regards,

CT

Glad to see you're staying with us Carl, even if you're just here for a distraction you have many friends here as you can see from the comments

Think of it this way.

You won't be the only guy on the board that doesn't build anything!

Amen to that!

I consider myself a perpetual tinkerer. I keep my mind satiated by improving little things at a time and occasionally completing something. 

But never an intense building session all at once.

Carl, do whatever you can. If only to keep your sanity and to have a much needed break.
