Working on a track that you have little access to on the opposite side is hard. Especially at age 69. Although I work out and have a strict health routine, leaning on tables and footstools to stretch over 4.5 feet is difficult. Nevertheless over 3 days of an hour here and an hour there, I got it running smoothly, and made some of my own borders.
I really like it. If the track was stretched out it would be over 20 ft. long. 41 feet in total length of track and it feels like it.
Now the hard job of re-landscaping begins. Als bit by bit. 😉
BTW. I love the hairpin! Drifting is fun!

BTW the kids are back home and we are heading to the studio for our regular routine of making monsters and toys for you to enjoy! Thanks for the wait!

As the saying goes “Normal people scare me!”. But of sorts we will be back to the studio today and from here on out regularly as the Grandchildren are going home early this morning. There was a change in plans as it turns out. I’ll be able to do some shipping today and tomorrow.

All the resin parts are cast for the rocket kits as of yesterday’s brief stop at the studio. Today I cut all the wood parts!

With the grandchildren here now for a week and 3 days to go to say my workflow has been interrupted is an understatement. I apologize for the delays to your orders made by this fact. Monday everything will be back to normal and all orders will be shipped the first of the week.

I did manage to get most of the resin parts for the rocket kits made. Two more sets today and I can complete the 6 kits.

The mask gets packed tomorrow and shipped.

I wrote this book about model subs years ago and there’s a lot of information in it about who to make a scracth built model without taking the easy way out with a 3D printer. I did all the illustrations using CGI in lightwave.

about 4 minutes long and jammed packed with fun!

Heading to the studio to fill all those orders I got for rocket kits over the weekend. Thank you all! I had to order more parts too! All good.

Salt Vampire will be haired and finished today.

Star Wars Star Destroyer finishes today as well.

New builds ahead. One it this 1/10 scale RC VW ralley bug:

I have a couple of Slot cars to complete. One is the T51 Cooper and it will be made ready for market over the next few weeks. Lots of molding to do yet to make the production molds. All fun stuff for the new year!!!

Grandchildren, holiday, and work don’t go well together
The title says it all. And to add insult to injury it’s in the 40’s, damp and redgid in the shop making any task difficult.
We have a 3 year old and a 7 year old until 8th of this new year.  I greatly appreciate all your orders. What happened? Did Santa not get you what you wanted? LOL Happens to all of us I guess so the minute the great day is past we launch on that mission to get that toy we just could go through life without. I have your back and well understand because we hobbyists have the same problem!
But I did manage to kit the Salt Vampire painted with a heater at my feet. I glazed the eyes upstairs where it was warm so the epoxy would set up. Wish I could paint a mask up there but there’s no spray booth. She get her hair and teeth today and out she goes on Monday.
I made some rocket parts to fill my ever growing orders for X-15s and X-15 Delta’s. There has been a mad run on those lately.
I’ll get all your rocket kit orders out next week but the latest slot car body kit and my submarine will be delayed until the kids are back home.
There will be Slot Car Fun this Sunday as usual and this time the topic is kids and slot cars. An epic story! LOL. Happy New Year everyone and thanks for the incredible support and love you have shown Mary and I this past year!
