Funny skunk story. My sister and had two cats. I was insider the house and one of the cats was also. The screen door had opening for the cats to go in and out. It was later in the afternoon and I here the cat grow. I look outside and shunk is coming towards the screen. I run over and closed the slider. There was a bowl of cat food on the patio and it was often a buffet for all of the wildlife at night. I got the impression that the cat was saying you can eat the food but you aren't coming into my house.

Don't think it's that the squirrels are evil they are simply forging for food. If you feed them and establish that your home is a source for food then they are going to go there for food. The solution is to not feed them. A while back the squirrels were tearing up the watering system in the summer becuase they were looking for water. He started putting out dishes of water and that solved the water problem. If they are going after wiring then you have to find a way to discourage them.

Cool project. Some interesting ideas.

Types of glues used in model building depends on the types of materials you are trying to join together.

Yup sometimes you just gotta be smarter than the squirrels.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Does sound doable however the big catch is the issue of copying. It's a lot of work regardless and needs to be profitable for the magazine.

Don't see it as being negative it is being realistic. And to your list of what-ifs somebody who wants to see it really happen could take on the task of making it happen.

Exactly.

I agree with everything you say. And yes if you are looking for a specific kit and can afford the price then by all means by it.

Keep chipping away at this cool project.

Always happy to see updates on your projects Bill.

Collections of kits are impressive but collections of built kits is far more impressive.

You have to be careful feeding them. You don't want to make them to get too dependent on being feed. I don't feed my by they have lots of pine cones to feed them.

If you google "google chrome issues 2023" there is a lot of info regarding what google has been trying to fix. It's been going on for a while.

Great observations. And there has been a push that all pages need to be secure. Sounds like Google didn't get all the security changes made.

I have a bunch of squirrels that live in the trees by my house. They are entertaining to watch.

Selflessness and civility are rare commodities these days. Quality time with family is so precious.

In my opinion the phone companies want more people to go to cell phones only. The infrastructure maintenance cost are expensive.

I basically did the same thing. When I got my cell phone I got rid of the landlines. It was an unnecessary expense.

Here, there , and everywhere aptly describes how models are strewn about in our hobby rooms.

True about the red herrings however each one needs to be investigated because there may be more relevant information to be found. It all boils down to the more complexity means the problems are more complex. Also more complexity means their are more ways things can be broken.

I suspect the cloning cost is dependent on the complexity of the kit being scanned and any enhancements. I also suspect that in this case the process would be scan, reduce by 80 percent, and manual cleanup which I suspect would take more time over a one-to-one cloning.

Thanks Dave. Interesting information.

You have the right attitude by learning from your mistakes. The more models you do the better you will get. A word of advice in general is try to avoid putting pressure to finish a model for a contest. It increases the chances of mistakes. Focus on getting the car done and then see about entering it in a contest. You will be a lot happier in the long run.

Thanks Dave. Sounds like this one is a real head scratcher. Hopefully Google will be addressing the issue. A dictionary Additional thought. Given the last update was security related it may be Google wants to investigate before they say too much. There may be a security issue that needs to be address and they don't want to say too much about it till they find a fix.
