    What beer ya drinking tonight?

    Next few photos are from last week's annual Tampa area spring training baseball trip. Tampa Rays spring training stadium had limited beer option. But sunny and 75 degrees made this taste wonderful.

    I had Antonio de Souza show me around his Powerbox Core radio and I was amazed. So freaking flexible, I was sold in minutes. 40 years of Futaba and my next radio will be the Core.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    He's still in high school so nothing difficult. He chose a can crusher. His teacher warned him about too simple, apparently he knows I'm a plumber and told my son he had high standards expected. His report and diagrams are on him. My scroll, table, band and chop saws, sanders, etc was...

    Helped my son CRAM for his engineering project tonight, same as last night. I've got a beer in my hand and the radio cranked so not all bad. He will turn in a rough draft version tomorrow but he learned a lot .

    Definitely, I'm cutting tomorrow regardless. At first assumed they were correct but looking around online I don't think so. Thus the inquiry. To be continued.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Micromark has good stuff but i usually end up with other brands. My small disk sander and table saw are both Brynes, mini lathe and mini mill are Unimat and Sherline, other bench top machines (Belt sander, scroll saw, drill press, chip saw) are Delta, etc. Whatever brand though, tools are...

    Helps that I own a plumbing company but pvc pipe is still cheap. I make a spray room out of pvc pipe and fittings (and plastic) No need to even glue the connections. Remember that using a box fan as an exhaust fan AND flammable paint is not a good combo.

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    I don't know, after waiting several MONTHS for a kit and every month was a missed promised deadline I cancelled my order. Ordered my Cub that I'm building and then watched from the sidelines as classic pattern flyer after flyer reported the same issues. Not for me. I lost most of a...

    The most amazing thing is that he got a kit from CCK. Renowned for delays and canceled orders, CCK is not well liked in the classic pattern forum.
