What would you do if you won big on the lottery?
KMcc replied to bobthehobbyguy's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I'm with Andy on this one: Sign the ticket and put ticket it in a safety deposit box. Then get a good lawyer and accountant and sit down and figure out who -what - when - where. I think you get a year to turn it in. Plenty of time to calmly and logically figure out what you want to do. People from everywhere will plead for money with their sob stories, so 'mums' the word. I personally have no big dreams. I would just be happy to not have to worry about anything financial for the rest of my life. -
Root beer barrels, banana Turkish Taffy and Beemans gum as a kid. Frozen Milky Way bars when I got older. Nowadays, my wife keeps Sorbee Sugar Free hard candy in the candy dish that she buys online.

The upside of the hobby- What part or parts do you enjoy the most?
KMcc replied to James2's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Hands down, for me, the upside of this hobby is: NO DEADLINES. Between running a business, remodeling my house, and having other people that rely on me, model building has become the escape from the deadlines I've been dealing with for 35 years. Most of my family and friends do not even know I started back into the hobby that I first got into as a kid. Mostly because they wouldn't understand why. If I want to practice airbrushing, that's what I do. If I want to solid model a new wheel, that's what I do. I have many things to learn and get better at. This Forum also seems like therapy: "My name is Keith and I'm a Model-holic." I have learned so much in the last five years on this forum. I just wish I could get more than two or three hours a week at the bench. Thanks guys! -
Picked this 68 VW for $100 in 1977 with the idea it would make good college transportation. Put new fenders, tires, muffler, and heater boxes on it to get inspected. Also put an FM Converter in it to help make trips to school a little more comfortable. It finally died from cancer in 1982. Picked up a Revell "VW 60's Beetle" kit to make a replica that appears to be more work to get 'on the road' than the real one did.

Torq Thrust on most 60's muscle But this and this I always thought looked good on camaros and corvettes in the 70's

Dennis, Wow! Guess we will call that an 'E' for effort. HA HA HA! -
New Help for 3D Printing: MESHY AI (works now)
KMcc replied to KMcc's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I just thought it was noteworthy enough to show were all this technology seems to be heading. Having read 'sci-fi' books in the early 70's, I never thought I'd see drones flying around during my lifetime, but here we are. Seems AI is here to stay. Might as well embrace what it can offer. Cheers. -

The primary types of bankruptcy in the U.S. are Chapter 7 (liquidation), Chapter 11 (reorganization, primarily for businesses), Chapter 13 (repayment plan for individuals), Chapter 12 (for family farmers and fishermen), Chapter 9 (for municipalities), and Chapter 15 (for international cases). -
My lord! I admire your work very much. My only criticism would be of my own inability to create such stunning works of art. Congratulations on your award.

Does 28 years count as vintage?
