Phew! I'm glad I'm not the only one using reading glasses and a magnifier! Don't know how I'd get by without the magnifier on the 'Helping Hands' gizmo! And, I sometimes use my old Graphic Arts 10x glass, designed for measuring the dots on half-tone negatives!
Oh! To be young(er) and fit again!

 

[109ROAMING]

So gotta get me a magnifyer

Think you need one in any scale -even 1/32

 

[lesofprimus]

Ur young Daniel, ur vision should be good... At the stage Im in, I should have already gotten reading glasses but Im being too stubborn to admit my inadequecies.... I refuse to accept that Im human and get old like all u other mortals...

 

[Airframes]

Hey, less of the old! I'm in premature maturity if you must know! Actually, I'm not 15 yet, got another 3 years to go until my next birthday!

 

[Wayne Little]

yeah..agree with Terry...less of that Old sh!t...

 

[lesofprimus]

43 aint young ya know....

 

[109ROAMING]

yeah but I only make 1/72 models mostly -those cockpits are pretty small ! a little scary

Can feel the strain sometimes

 

[lesofprimus]

Forget 1/72, even with magnifyers I still wouldnt be able to manage them....

 

[Lucky13]

Fantastic work Brother! I'll try to do some work later on my two crates, if i'ts not too painful to sit leaning forward....f*cking sore ribs!

 

[lesofprimus]

Thanks Jan, what happened to ur ribs man???

 

[Lucky13]

A wee incident at work mate. Tried to jump to assist a colleague whose pallet of beer had started to collaps. He tried to stop it, but the whole thing had started to roll forward. I took a short cut from my section to his over two pallets, something managed to get stuck in my boot and flew over and hit the concrete floor face first....
Couldn't see or talk for several minutes, just some yiddi yadda and blurred vision...could see that someone was talking, but I couldn't tell who.

**** happens....

 

[lesofprimus]

Jesus, talk about an ass whipping.....

 

[Wayne Little]

Hopr you didn't do too much damage Jan?

 

[Lucky13]

Can't cough, sneeze, laugh etc....hurt like f*ck! Just to bite together and get on with it.

 

[Njaco]

Did you save the beer?

 

[Lucky13]

It was just Corona NOT Guinness....

 

[lesofprimus]

Been messin around some with the parts and pieces, added some more scratch work as well.....

 

[Maglar]

Whoa Dan, THAT is orgasmic!!!!!

 

[rochie]

Looks even better all glued together !

 

[Lucky13]

Top notch mate!
