  1. A real Status Update for a change.... Nearly all modelling has had to be curtailed for 18 months due to a serious illness to a close family member. Time vanished and income declined. Things are on the mend and time is being freed up but projects requiring expenditure will still have to wait.

      I sympathise with you, I have the same problem, I have not visited the shed for modelling since May, when my wife was told she had terminal cancer and only months to live

      I agree, but, only because I only seem to be able to get 10 - 15 minutes to do something before I need to help my wife, walk the dog, answer the door/phone, feed the dog/wife, answer an important E mail, (coz I am partly working from home since my wife became ill), empty the washing machine, fill the dishwasher or something else none model related.

      I am trying to build a High Level 14xx chassis, but its taking a while. Mind you I am pleased with what I have done so far

  3. Having searched for an hour I can now report that there are very few truly conical items in an average household. Especially 3 cm high ones.
