Completed.








Going to focus on getting all of these Tamiya models finished. Really like how this one turned out.

It was raining most of the day and the wife is away on a trip so out came the r/c’s. I have been putting this off for a long time, I’m a perfectionist but lack the skills necessary to be one lol I dislike cutting bodies and applying stickers almost as much as I do shaving…but I hunkered down, choppe...

I have sat down the past two evenings trying to finish up my Slash puller so that I may be able to compete with it next weekend. When I went ordering parts, I really didn't think there was much of a difference between the Slash and the Drag Slash, so just ordered Slash parts. Last night, I learned t...

My Hornet bodied Ishipla Monster has been a little too naked, so it was sticker time.

Bunch more done today. Added turbuckles, switched out center wire link on steering for a turnbuckle and a couple other minor details. Now onto the shocks.

*Sigh*

RIP poor motor.

Whilst part of the world celebrates the ancient Chinese tradition of fireworks ( :P ), here in Downunderville we're having what was supposed to be a *record mild winter*, you know, due to Global Boiling and all that. So, here's a picture of Señor Pooch, taking in a zero degree morning earlier this w...

Smoker is rolling. Did some burgers and weenies on my Dad's Traeger. I'm a Weber charcoal guy that's been tolerating a gas grill for a few years now. So the Traeger was a nice departure, even if (IMO) they are a bit overrated. Anyway, with your Bret Michaels meme in mind, I had to tell everybody th...

Perfect for this colder-than-usual Winter, my better half did some of her Sausage and Baked Bean Curry.... perfectly spicy, and a great way to end the week!
