An excellent comedy satire of television news was "LateLine" with Al Franken as a bumbling reporter for a late night network news show similar to Nightline. I was in television news at the time and I was tickled pink with all the newsroom insider humor. Very perceptive. 12 episodes aired on network TV.

Fortunately he left behind many instructional videos demonstrating not only correct techniques but his amazing craftsmanship. He was very articulate. An amazing life. RIP 😢

I've always wanted to take this Terminator and scale up the pieces to make a large, possibly life sized prop. But... well... umm... yeah. 😐

This makes me sad too, but the ship was lost many years ago. Much too far gone and too late to salvage. The interior is so thoroughly gutted that she's only a shell. She's no time capsule like some derelict cruisers are. At this point "benefiting the environment" is the easy out. Until recently, I didn't even know it was still around.

First ARCA race I've watched in years, but a kid from town here, Bryce Haugeberg, raced so I had to see. Glad I did. I got to see the birth of new media sensation Cletus McFarland and see the kid finish tight among the last cars running. How he got our college to sponsor him beats me, but it was a nice looking ride.

Click bait.

Quite an ambitious project but it turned out good. Thanks for sharing.

Yes. Interested.

This is brilliant and totally new to me. Dying to try it. But it also reminds me of watching a video of Gene Winfield do leading. Looks easy in the hands of a master but I could see a potentially aggravating learning curve. No guts no glory, eh?

I guess that's what it would take to make the Rainbow conventional, but it's got such great (and really dated) geek appeal that I want to build it more now than when I started this thread 12-years ago. Like the Cybertruck, it's a head scratcher, but in my book anything different is good.

Port hole add ons.

Wonderful nostalgia here. I suppose it's pretty unlikely you still have the drawing. That would've been a treat to see paired here.

I will say, it smacks a little of promo photo. Lots of art supplies but no model supplies

On my FB feeds today. I tried to find the famous modelers thread on this forum and just add this there but various search efforts failed to find it. I'm sure someone here has it bookmarked. "Actor Peter Cushing demonstrates his hobby of making model aircraft at his home in Whitstable, UK, February 1959."

Bravo!!! 👏. First class stuff right there.
