    Slow burn but here’s is this weeks update. I managed to get the “tail” done, painted the fuel tank, front cowling and seat done. I kinda like the seat it came out pretty well

    It's hard to keep up with all the excellent builds here on Imodeler. Yours stands right there at the top Cricket (@bikequeen). This looks excellent. Hopefully the job won't interfere with all the fun you get from building. I am sort of half-heartedly looking for part time work myself, mainly so I can avoid selling my boat.

    @clipper thank you Carl, sometimes I think I’m invisible here … SIGH

    I hope you can find work…..my “job” is purely volunteer, but at my age it doesnt matter I would rather have it this way as it gives me the autonomy i want. Plus the 2 women I work with are GREAT! They are as crazy as me 😉

    I think the "invisibleness" of forums, is just a natural outcome of the nature of these beasts, Cricket (@bikequeen).

    We all are so bombarded by things vying for our attention, and so many people participate in forums, that it gets to be overwhelming. There's a feeling of needing to participate, a feeling of not being noticed, trolls (unfortunately - but at least not in this forum - thankfully). I know you know this, it's just a bit of conversation. I am not really sure of what the right balance is, but it's a constant battle against not enough time to do everything, and all the competing needs, desires, responsibilities, etc. 😕
