All Righty ... What's on the bench today?

:smack

You guys knock it off, I got a doctors excuse and can't wait to get back on the bench, 3 weeks now and nothing really productive.

I'm going to give it a shot today. :soldier.
 
If you really want to get back to the bench MP I have a spare Wildcat I can send you. Maybe do all the panels open seeing as you have time :coolio :evil: :D
 
Yesterday was 1:1 bench time. A roller system to keep Mac in the yard. It consist of a 1" piece of PVC pipe placed over a 1/2" piece of PVC and then suspended on wire cable supported by "L" braces. This prevents the dog from getting a solid grip on the top rail to climb over.

Mac's ears tell the story. He's not happy with the new arrangements.

I still haven't regained the scale modeling bug yet. All the stress in trying to get the use of a service dog at work has got me in an emotional rut. What's sad is it dealing with the new psychologist that is doing it. I'm hoping I see an upswing in the near future.
 
Pretty smart, I had to run one of those shock wires around the fence for one of ours, 110v has a great deterrent factor.

Kenny, looking good. That is a great idea for keeping Mac in the yard. You have a great neighborhood.

Like the Brewater Buffalo, they look sooo good NMF with Yeller wings (y) :tomato

No yeller wings this time, doing NMF on the Jug. Which I started today, cleaned up the resin cockpit and got a coat of Nato Black for primer on it. Going to mix up the Zincs on the inside some, should make it interesting.

Had one of those for our first climber. It worked too, until she realized that if she would take the shock the first time and wrap the wire around the tines of the fence it would ground out and she could get out. :frantic

This time, we couldn't use one because we didn't want Ian to grab it not knowing what it was.
 
Hoping to get some airbrushing in, got some cockpits to do,but with it raining :idonno

I go head and start another kit (y)

Too much ...... cleaning stuff off .... finding things that had gone missing ..... Still cleaning .... My mak-shift paint booth Has a place to live ..... :eek:ldguy
 
Nada for me. I installed a self-filling water bowl on the back yard under the watchful eyes of Mac and Rommel. Oh, a self-filling water bowl has a float set-up similar to a toilet, ironic, and connects to the water faucet.
 
Just give them a toilet out there, neighbors will talk but you won't have to train them.

Quote from the late great Lewis Grizzard
I was walking into the bathroom and saw my lab "Catfish" drinking out of the toilet
"Catfish, what are you doing in my toilet' I said.
Catfish turn and said, "what have you been doing in my drinking water?"
