Nice build, those are great cars!

Beautiful work!

Really nice build, great paint!

That's a great diorama!

I use this stuff from the Dollar store. Non toxic, no smell and strips off enamel paint.

I recently discovered you can just copy/paste a photo where the cursor is.

I also recently discovered on this forum (and my mountain bike forum too) that I can just copy/paste a picture into where the cursor is.

I built one of those years ago. This is how it came out, it's a beater.

Louie when he was a pup. More recently at 12 years old.

Here's another little creature in my yard.

Years ago I had this in my yard, more like a flower pot on the railing.

Sorry to hear that. Dogs are so precious. He looks a little like my dog that I grew up with.

Did you know that they are the most efficient predators with over a 90% kill rate? It's because if their eyes that can see almost all around and they can maneuver like a helicopter.

A couple of weeks ago while I was washing my car I had this visitor:

Ford and Boeing must be working together.

It depends on the parts and where the attachment points is (that's called a mold gate). If it's someplace that's not going to be seen or needs a touch up then I leave it on the parts tree. But sometimes I don't have a choice and leaving it attached is acceptable and I may have to touch it up where I cut it off.

Actually, that's not the only dead giveaway. I never placed such an order in the first place is another. Plus I get a number of these style scams. The whole return email address is always a dead giveaway too. The attachment says it's scanned by Gmail, so it might be safe to open and look at it, but's it's a phony. All I have to do is go to my PayPal account and see what transactions I really made.

Here's one I just got and I get a number of these. I NEVER open the attachment. Plus it's not any order or payment I ever made.

I've had an SMS text scam pretending to be from my bank. It said there was a transaction and I should click their link to verify it. Of course there was no charge. I certainly didn't click the link and I called up my bank to verify that the text wasn't from them. For one this it came from a 10 digit phone number. The bank's text's come from a 4 digit number. Then a week later I had another one from another bank. I just ignored it. I've also had phony USPS texts claiming a problem with my delivery. I knew that was BS too. One time when I got one of those I already had a real text from the USPS because it was a tracking text. I could see the difference in the numbers they cam from. AND if it was real it would have been part of the real USPS text, not in a separate one. Plus I know what packages I have coming.

Of course they never leave a message. I get that too. It's either spoofed caller ID's of people we don't know, towns & states, Company names with different numbers every time they call and the list goes on.

Me too.

She played Olive Oil in the live action Popeye movie with Robin Williams (he was Popeye).

Just like Rodent said. Just take a screen grab of it and save it.

I didn't know it was still around. I thought it was gone. Years ago I used to have it bookmarked and the last time I tried it I think I got a 404 on it. Anyway, you can't make plates that are newer than 1998. I use this now. http://www.licenseplates.tv/

I have this mandrill. It was originally used for truing down tires on a 1/8 scale nitro RC car. Now I use it for 1/25 scale tires. The way I can make it work is because I have these two shallow conical discs. Also from the RC car. They were used under the body clips to protect the Lexan body. The pictures show the rest.
