Be de be de Bede Aircraft BD-5 was a single seat high-performance kitplane, and even real jet power was possible. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bede_BD-5

Now that you mention that, I had to do something similar several years back. There was also an issue, when we were still allowed to edit old posts (to change the title header to revive a long-dormant thread for example), when editing the header would somehow delete all the photos in the first post. Beautiful model, by the way.

"Close Encounters of the Garbage Kind" could be a movie about aliens throwing their trash on the street in front of my house, and their surprise when they start finding themselves teleported to a galaxy far, far away.

Why? You getting combat pay or sumpin?

I seem to remember reading it in either Dashiell Hammett or Raymond Chandler too...

I understood him to say "I can re-create the issue pretty easily", not that he necessarily uses <img> tags. Sometimes during diagnostic procedures (in mechanical systems as well), you try to recreate the effect any way you can, which often sheds light on the actual cause. Well, I do, anyway.

Time to take out the garbage...

Bumper cars running on electrically conductive floors probably aren't allowed anymore.

You might want to look at the OP, and review how this "game" is played.

I still believe that aspiring mechanical engineers (or any degree path that has anything to do with any kind of manufacturing) should be taught to machine at least simple things on non-CNC mills and lathes. At Ga. Tech, it was mandatory when I was there (as was basic programming in Cobol). In the mid-1990s when I hired an intern from the Tech ME program, they no longer had to machine anything manually, and the kid told me the beautiful old manual machines were sitting outside in the rain, going to rust. There is simply no better way to understand machining processes than to make things with your own two hands and a fully engaged mind.

Want to see something "just built out of the box" using more advanced techniques, care, and skill...but nothing else? This is one way we learn...by watching somebody who's good at what they do.

Superstition can be less than helpful late at night when something goes "bump".

Aliens are still trying to find intelligent life on Earth.

"Stash" has different meanings in different circles. (though this is correctly a "stache")

Inspirational. I bought one.

I've tried a bunch of stuff, on both car and HO scale railroad models. My favorite to date is Tamiya flat-black acrylic in the little jars.

"Cash for Clunkers" was an expensive program that, according to the majority of after-the-fact studies, had none of the forecast economic benefit and negligible environmental impact, but a lot of perfectly good vehicles (over 675,000) were destroyed, and their engines were made permanently inoperative and useless even as parts donors.

Beautiful beautiful. I NEED this. I built a full-scale LS-powered '47 convertible some years back, and this gives me a great place to start a scale replica of that car. Ordering soon...

Be the best version of YOU you can be with the gifts you've been given, be appreciative of small things, develop your own set of values to live by, and never compromise to "fit in".

Good. Gotta watch head injuries, specially when you get vertigo some time later. Take care, rest, heal up.

Happened to me using the same Win10 laptop I've been using here for years.

Row row row your boat, trying not to scream, warily, warily, warily, warily, catch yourself some bream.

Monkeys by the billions sitting at keyboards and tapping out random code would eventually duplicate every program and app ever written...said no one ever. https://christiancadre.blogspot.com/2017/08/infinite-monkeys-keyboards-and-time.html
