What's on The Workbench

Bullsh!t...not even close....

You may say that Little Boy but you have yet to back up those words with pics/#.Just go ahead and admit you gave up the gonans to wife on that faithful day of "I Do" and she can't do it to you twice.Now I hear from others that once you break 1000 kits the wife has rights to shoot the husband/modeler.

Thank christ she hasn't got a gun then....but I would say I'm not near that mark by a long stretch so i'm safe for the moment....

thanks mate

they are actually, giant clothes pegs for hanging out laundry !

got them from a local discount shop, not as strong a grip as proper clamps so do come in usefull for delicate bits !

Sir, you have offended my Country with your blasphemy washeth your mouth with soap !

you need to see one to understand my friend, maybe not as good looking as some but almost unbeatable at what it could do in its time !

as a 7 year old boy i first saw one blast down the runway pitch up into the vertical and what i thought at the time blast into space !
a second later the noise hit me and bounced my internal organs around in my chest, i was in love so much i dropped my ice cream !!!

but 5 minutes later a Vulcan did the same thing only louder and i jumped ship !

 

[Wayne Little]

good work there Karl, I was wondering about them pegs too.....look real good for the purpose mate!

 

[Catch22]

Very cool Karl, good to see you back at it. I almost bought that myself yesterday, but I had to stop somewhere.
