Outstanding to say the least.  

Rock solid build, with some very realistic weathering.

Slow going brother.  I just changed jobs and my schedule has completely changed.  I am trying to adjust and still get stuff done.  I am going to try to get some done this weekend and post an update.

Guys,

 believe me, I can sense your frustration. Been there for almost 50 years. Just finally retired 3 weeks ago, and now I have all the time in the world do indulge in my hobbies and interests. Of course the head of the household has other plans when my negotiated 1 month of doing nothing is over.

I just came off 12 hour night shifts to 8 hour day shifts and my body is still rebelling.  I am hoping in a couple weeks I will be adjusted and can spend some quality time at the bench in the evenings after work.  Of course, SWMBO usually has other ideas on what I should be using my quality time for!  :crying:  Joel, at least she negotiated with you!!  :thumbsup:

Tom,

  I ran the overnight crews at CVS for 6 years after being a day manager for 25 years. When I was off Friday-Sunday, sleeping like a normal person was next to impossible. I use to go to sleep when I got home at 8am and slept 3 hrs and that was it per day till Friday night. I was up like every few hours. Like I said, I'm slowly learning how to sleep like most people do.

Tom,

  I ran the overnight crews at CVS for 6 years after being a day manager for 25 years. When I was off Friday-Sunday, sleeping like a normal person was next to impossible, getting up every few hours throughout the night. During the work week I use to go to sleep when I got home at 8am and slept 3 hrs., and that was it per day till Friday night.  Like I said, I'm slowly learning how to sleep like most people do.\, but it's not an easy conversion.

 

As for the negotiations with the ultimate power to be, I sold my soul. 

Joel
