Rick Griewski Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Good and you better not dautle. You need to plan how you will get it into your house (past the wife) where to display it and maybe add some type of extension to some part of your house. Negotiations and ageements take time.

Rick Griewski Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 By the time I would finish that kit. The next week I would be asking the nurse at the home to mash my green peas for me at dinner. LOL same goes for the 1/200 Arizona kit. Rick Jeff and Padraic Conway 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Thats the one item that’s holding me back a little.........my benchtime equates to an hour a week if at all. So given that equation, I’ll get mine built somewhere this side of never.........I so want one though....... Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CATCplSlade Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Considering the average life span in the U.S. is decreasing, a lot of us may be running out of time for this hobby. Rick Griewski and Jeff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petrov27 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 yeah I was hopin for a another 20+ years to at least reach the age my father and mother are now (both still living and in their 70s) but my health issues of the last year (the big C) leave me thinking it unlikely. Still, they can just bury my stash with me - even if I don't build em all I still enjoy reviewing the kits, planning what pilot and schemes they will be, researchin' etc. Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ray Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Same boat here. I need to reach the age my grandfather was at his death, 100, to even have a chance of completing cutting the stash down a bit. Jeff and Bomber_County 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
