To put it simply Say you can earn £10k a year before you have to pay tax however the pension they give you is £11k so immediately they pay you...you have to fill out a tax return form and pay them back some of what they just paid you. :)

I am already thinking about the next build but in the UK the tax year ends on the 5th April and i absolutely must get my tax sorted :) I am slowly winding up the business however we have a stupid system here where we get a state pension that we pay into during our working life however we also...

Great thanks Bob Last time i was in RN Portsmouth i went to the historic dockyard and was going to have look round Victory however i was too big to fit in it :rotfThe lower deck is only 5ft high and i am 6ft 4" and couldn't walk about bent double for half an hour Victory is still commissioned...

Time waits for no man (1395 Chaucer)

TBH a good phone camera is better and easier for website pictures than a DLSR but the problem is with them for anything else is the lens. My mate was showing me how wonderful his iPhone 93 or something was the other day, with a hugely colourful macro shot of a flower...but all i could see was...

Yea mines got a silk type curtain over the led's ie: up top but not the sides. its a strange effect, makes me look like my painting is not up to scratch :rotf

its basically in the reflection but its far worse on Black or in this case dark blue so at the other extreme, it not going to show nearly as bad on gloss white. Its interesting to see the seat reflected in the fuel tank in that picture,,

A little problem I ran into today. I don’t know if any of you use a light box ? its basically just a box with some LED’s in it that illuminates a subject so you can take a picture of it. They are very useful, I bought mine because I wanted to take hundreds of pictures of all the items I sell...

This is my first MFH build. Quite a change from anything i have done before. These are quite delicate and fiddly things to put together and i have learnt a lot with this one about order of construction and getting the finish i want on the castings so i think i can improve on this with future...

Thanks tim, its finished now , i just need to take some pictures so will post soon

Because i failed with the gas tank paint i needed to do something else. I decided to keep it really simple because the rest of the model is so nice, rather than make a stand out feature of the tank i wanted it to just blend to that end i have added a couple of pin stripes to tie it in with the...

Wow....that is RED

Dead cheap and could be used as parts, scale is 1/10 but bikes come in all sizes, maybe a rusty frame or complete without wheels. includes a nice old pump, but you might be better to scratch the whole lot...

The new one has 2 spares, one each side.

There is a new version out today of the race version with a spare wheel https://www.hiroboy.com/112_Bugatti_Type_35B_Targa_Florio_29_Monaco_GP_30--product--17738.html

Very impressive steve, I particularly like the ivy on the fence. you have completely sold me on the idea of bases, i have only ever done one for my Bugatti a while back and i have to say it was as much fun as building the car, mainly i think because you can let your imagination go and you are...

Many thank Bugatti fan :-) I have the new version of this kit as well waiting in the wings , its the road going version with, spare wheel, mud guards, lights etc. ......one day :-)

Half a petrol tank fitted(other half under the bike) so i can get some plumbing done. I hope doing this in Copper isnt going to be too much.

So....a coastguard Apache it is then :)

looking at the instructions you can clearly build two entirely different helicopters very odd :)
