Ah, that's the idea of still have a tube TV! Model displays! Very nice, Don!

Here's an idea of building all Alfonso's Shuttles... build them as a mirror project of the Shuttle Program... spanning 10 years of build without rushing. Well, the 1981/2011 is gone but easy to get (STS-1 in April and STS-2 in Nov 12), still in time for the 1982/2012 set (March 22, June 27 & Nov 11). Interesting... and it will end in 2021... a 9 year thread, and 135 shuttles around the house...

Keep coming those shuttles, Don!

I have thought of that but with all the work im putting into the wing structure for Columbia and all the rest of the fleet, i really only wantto build for the orbiters as they were on they're first flight, and then to match my 1:96 build of AXM's ISS, i am gonna build then outfit a Russian Buran shuttle model to demonstrate docking at the station for the shuttles. Not to mention i can hardly afford the bill for the parts i had custom made at my fathers pipe organ shop, which is around 25 to 50 dollars for parts and labor. I pretty much had a 5 in. X 1/2in. dole lathed down to i think it was 7/8 of an in. leaving a 1/2 in X 1 1/2 in. long area for the largest of the 5 cylinders connecting the trucks to the chaise.

It sure is, Don. Must feel a little like a nice warm coat.
At least that's how it felt for me when I started here. (And still am)
