Hmmm, turns out there is a store here in Memphis. Looks like I will have a weekend run to check it out.'

Today I went by the local hobby shop in their new digs. A nice improvement. Much better shelving (not sure how that came about) Much better lighting, and the slot car track is HUGE! Seems like someone said it is 165 feet along the center line of 4 lanes. I will buy kits in there but lately they just have not had what I want. I still buy a lot of paint and other items there.

Anyway I made a trip to the local ORVIS store. It is basically a clothing/outdoors man store with a small fly fishing section back in the corner. Today I was mainly looking for the wire. I will have to go back and check out shirts and other fly-fishing supplies.

Rather than do the hair simile, I have given some actual sizes on the wire so you can know just how thick it is. (Not Very on the fine stuff)


Finally on Thanksgiving day my old phone must have gotten a voltage spike or something after I plugged it in to recharge over at my mom's. It was working one minute and a short while later, completely dead. Only thing I really lost were the phone numbers so Mark, Barney, and Moon Pup send me a text so I can reset your numbers.

I liked my old phone a lot but this new one has a lot of convenient features that work much better. Should be a good one.

You're not signing into Google and giving them your entire online presence so they can send adds to ya? The benefit is you'll have a backup. I'll send you a text today. (y)

What I'm wondering about with this wire, mine came in this week, is how it recovers from kinks and how malleable it is. Will find out today with any luck.

Looking at the bobbins, the wire is made by UTC in the US. I did a little search and it is available in a LOT of colors (and sizes I guess)
Here is an Amazon link:

Damn adverts, have no idea how that got there. Try again!

Amazon link to UTC wire

fixed

Only thing I can figure is that Google, when you do searches now does some redirect crap when you first select one of the directs and you never know what will show up. :facepalm

Box full of goodies showed up today.

This F-14 by AMK looks really really good. I have built the Tamiya so I am looking forward to building and comparing it. I really did the one piece weapons.
