Good for you Ken. I just got a composite Mig-15 90mm for next year. I got the motor cycle at 48.

Yaah seen it happen in the last few years with guys at DND turning 50 and they buy the big Harley's they can't handle them and they have nasty accidents. Don't be just another organ donor.

Hey Ken. Thanks for the laugh.
By almost any standard, our hobby is inexpensive. period. Getting that through to the better half is another thing and I believe it is more about the appearances of excess ('you've got so many in the basement as it is'), rather than the money. I have a new mustang and a friend recently asked me how much it's worth...easy...it's worth half of my kingdom to me, 'cause that's what I'd lose in the settlement

I know there are some jet guys with 10-15 large invested...maybe more, and it can literally evaporate in seconds, but those are at the other end of the bell curve. For us mere mortals with a few thousand dollars of stuff...not really much to get excited about.

Absolutely love to see Canadian content in MAN. Thanks for doing it.

It took 37 days from order. I had notice the HET website had said out of stock so I ordered through EJF cause they had some in stock. Funny model came direct from HET in CHINA. Paid 23 dollars in duty at post office also.

The real secret it to make the workshop a dangerous place for her to visit. Cleaning up was your first mistake. What were you thinking? LOL. Now that it's cleaner, she'll be more inclined to come down.

Keep it dingy and dark. Of course, you can always turn on your workbench light AFTER she visits With extra stuff lying around, she wont notice that new jet-in-the-box tucked away in the corner HA HA...
