Thanks Wojtek for changing the heading of my build from VII it was to the IX that it became!

You'r welcome.

Geo.. .lol: - get back to you on those Lotto numbers Paul!

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Been knocked out myself for the past week Paul, not flying crow bars though but drop bears, habitual problem in Oz!!! Seriously though, the Spits looking good, the bench even better and heaven knows how great the workshop looks.

Take care of that concussion Paul, maybe we should club together and get you a pommy WWII tin hat.

 

[Catch22]

Looks real good Paul!

 

[T Bolt]

Looking sharp Paul, and take care of that head, It could just be useful sometime.

Vic, here's a couple of shots that demonstrate my philosophy of "organization".
As for the desk, I usually have about a square foot or so that I work on, the rest... well, let's call it "storage".
Clean living and pure thoughts, that's my motto.
Drop bears...
I have been informed that a bit of Vegemite behind the ears keeps them away.
Not sure if it's behind your ears or the bears, but either way...
Thanks for the offer, I've got my old U.S. "piss-pot" around somewhere.

The inside of the cabinet looks pretty squared away !

Nice space Paul, looks well used. Is that a Wildcat I see in the cabinet? I think Terry may have spotted it too.

Why, yes,... yes it is. That fine product of the Grumman ironworks is an excellent example of American engineering and is one of the proud displays of my collec....
Oh, wait, did you say Wildcat? Yep, I got one of those too...

 

[meatloaf109]

I managed to knock the left landing gear off again...
I'm pretty sure that there was another reason to post this picture, maybe after I see it, I'll remember

I'll try again

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

[Wayne Little]

Like the organisation of that work space....everything in it's place!

 

[Wurger]

Almost, almost ...

Thanks, I am not sure, (after a total of 10 concussions), of what better or even "normal" is, but I appreciate the sentiments.
My sister started keeping track after my third shot to the head at the age of 8, (chunk of ice fishing house that my brother blew up), I had forgotten several of them until she reminded me. 10 is her count. Thats 2 from my colliding with a fixed object, 2 from people that thought I would benifit from the experence, and 6 from flying/falling objects.
Liberal application of alcohol keeps the headaches down, and oddly enough, I've never gotten one because of drinking. (Concussion that is, I've had a few headaches from drinking.)
I am applying the last of the weathering to the Spitfire, and will be attatching the wind screen and such...

Or one place for everything.
