So I do really need to find a way to come up with some cash as the old
battle axe is not working.
Selling off the models seemed like the logical place to start.....but
then I go over to Hyperscale and find that there will soon be a 1/32
Airacobra and an X-15.   Now those two puppies for sure will take up
permanent residence in the garage........

So what's the point in selling the kits I have?

I am screwed, I am screwed, I am screwed.......

Heh...I used to not eat to be able to do tons of stuff...now that I have
Crohn's, I find I can't do that any longer.  But I find other things to
give up.

What I do is cut back on the big stuff first, then the little things
that I really can do without.  Pay off what you can and keep it payed
off if you have any debt.  Things that make recurrent bills go next -
like cable, cell phones, I haul my own trash, etc.  Then I re-access and
set some priorities realizing that I should allow myself at least one,
if not a couple luxuries/comforts.  But not all at once.  You can spend
time or money, and I don't mind spending time.  I have more of it than
money.

I've bought one kit (and three guitars...raided some savings...) since I
got out of the hospital last year.  And I can't seem to save any of my
take-home pay - it's all going to meds and food now.  I've got some
things I'd REALLY like to do that I can't do right now, but still, I'm
pretty content.

I Guess that you are just gonna have to get used to Tightening Your Belt
then :(

OHHHHH - Just How Much is that 1/32 scale X-15 going to be and just when
-n- where will you be able to get this thing.

I bet you could Hide 2 Packs of Twinkies inside of the fuselage for an
X-15 that Big

That's if One is in Need of a Place to Hide Ones Snacks.  If One was
Hiding Snacks

Speaking of the X-15, anyone have a clue as to what this thing is?:
