Toonies never say fly, or something like that!

That looks very European........... I trust that was your intent!

Yea, we really need a nice kit of the '57 Thunderbird! One of the more iconic cars from the '50s..... Here's mine I built a couple years ago........

No meme for you! Come back, one year.........

Sometimes when my Mom is out running errands, I'll get her to swing by O'Reillys to pick up whatever I may need paint wise...... She was perusing the perfect match rack looking for a particular color for me, when another color caught her eye. "This is a pretty color, TJ, and it has the flakes in it..... like , what you call it, Metallica." She tries, though! and is 100% okay with me buying kits when I do, which I don't do very often.....

Literal competition!

Shorts on SNL that featured Martin Short included one of my favorite characters, Ed Grimley........

Well, it's cool that it was a series! They kind of left me with a cliff hanger, of sorts...... After opening the door on the pickup, he said something to the effect of "next episode, we'll show how to make hinges." Did those hinges get made? or Was it a started project that never got finished? Like so many of our projects.......... LOL!

I believe there was only the one episode, but there was a program on PBS about building models....... I remember the hosts going over opening the driver's door on a Ford pickup that was molded in brown. I was just wondering if anybody remembered it, or may have had something to do with it.

Bill's a good guy, man..... You just have to take him with a grain of salt, so they say. He builds model cars for pete's sake....... How bad of a guy could he be?

Is that a rubber chicken in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

Yea, not everybody 'gets' Bill's sense of humor, I guess!

Today is the first day of the next week and a half.

What are you spraying it over? I've had this happen trying to clear a Tamiya color coat. I had to wait like two weeks before the clear would hold it's shine....... I believe the color coat gassing out was causing it to go flat.

Hey, guys! This may be a dumb question, but are the tools meant for Gundam building of a cheaper quality than car-hobby tools? This tool kit that I will link to has all sorts of handy tools! Snips, files, a pin vice, they really hook you up! https://www.amazon.com/Gundam-Professional-Building-Modeler-Repairing/dp/B08R6B2PYD/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=gundam+model+tool+kit&qid=1691195689&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1 But, this whole kit only costs a little over $20...... Which is kinda cheap considering what all you get. I'm just wondering if the price reflects quality.......

"I'm a loner, Dottie, a rebel.........."

Treated lumber generally has a green tint....

That turned out super nice!

I thought you had a question about the story by Bachman/King...........

That looks great, man. Did you use some sort of template?

He was also in a few C&C movies......... "I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... I'm NOT sorry! HaHa!"

Aww.... That's too bad! In his own way he really was a comedic genius. I enjoyed the cartoon voices he did, mainly "Reuben" on the show 'Chowder'......... He was also Batmite on one of the Batman cartoon series'.

How are you guys accessing the Model Roundup site, on a phone? or on a computer? I use an old desktop and I've always been able to use a debit card......... May sound kinda dumb, but maybe some setting or something in the phone could be causing problems.

I use a camera, it's an older one. I got a memory card reader from WalMart. Once I've taken my pics, I just remove the memory card from the camera, slide it into the reader, and plug it in to the computer. The computer automatically sends the photos into the proper file......

Pretty much like attaching them to an email..... click 'choose files' ( or you can drag and drop like Les ), pick your picture from your files, then 'insert into post' once it's uploaded. You do have to be careful of where the cursor is in the body of the post, because that's where the pic will go..........
