I've got no plans for the 4th this year and have been kicking around the idea of doing a three day build, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Anyone interested in doing the same? If so we'll make it a CBP, no theme, no restrictions, just one unstarted model, or a rebuild, done by Sunday night? EDIT- Okay it looks like we're gonna make a go of this and have a few people interested so here's the rules. 1. Build what ever you want, however you want. 2. Share your work on this thread as much or as little as you want, but we'd love to see some pics. 3. The model should be a new kit, or pile of parts box orphans, or a re-builder. 4. Don't over do it. Remember to eat, sleep, do some fireworks, kiss the wife/girlfriend. I don't want to get an angry phone call from your boss Monday morning because you're too exhausted to work. 5. Start anytime after 12:01am Friday July 3rd and be done by 12:00pm Sunday night. 6. Have fun. On a side note, building something quickly involves planning ahead. So between now and Friday, get the model out, figure out what the difficulties will be and make a plan. Clean off the workbench. Check the body/glass/interior/chassis fitment and make sure there wont' be any surprises on Sunday's final assembly. Make sure you've got all the glue, paint, spare parts you'll need. Lets have some fun. EDIT: After some discussion with Chuck, we both thought this would be fun to do as annual event. So if you can't participate this year, but would like to, you'll get more chances in the years to come.
