  7. So let me get this straight, the less free time I have, the more people want to monopolize it? If adulthood were a system of government, it would've been violently overthrown long ago.

      Yep when people know you have some time to spare there is no end to what you'll be asked to do!

      Brad

      I resisted for a long time, but decided to get it since the free period is coming to and end. You're right, just playing with it tonight, it's much faster.

      Brad

      This year I was only going to build the nice models in my stash them I pulled out a PCM Macchi 202...ugh. I agree though, I've pretty much given away or sold all the crap kits I had.

  13. Getting some very patchy coverage from my current bottle of Klear. The self-levelling is still there, but the sheen varies from a high gloss to patches of satin. I wonder if the weather hereabouts is playing Hob with the stuff - it's varying from blazing sunshine to storms, with all kinds of humidity in between.

      Sounds like it might have been drying before it hit the surface in parts.

  14. I just managed to strip skin from the palm side of both thumbs while trying to open a jar of Gunze acrylic. Note to self: Clean the gunge from the threads before closing the jar next time.

    1. Brad

      Brad

      Just soak the jar in some hot water from the tap for 5 or so minutes, makes opening them much easier.

  17. ..what is called when you can't find your glasses after a 30-minute hunt, only to realise you are actually wearing them ?

  18. What's the point of all these global warming-related taxes and restrictions, if they won't even give us the global warming?!

    1. Brad

      Brad

      I'm still wondering just how many times can the global warming alarmists be wrong with their predictions and computer models before we get to call shenanigans on the whole thing.
