    Modeling With the Toy Shop

    Don't know if anyone has posted this one before. It was a program to make paper models with a Commodore 64. Thiswebsite has a number of models that evidently came with the program. If you've never been to the site, it's interesting. mikeandlace.wordpress.com/ Enjoy, Eric

    U.S.S. Aironza Memorial by Inky in Downloads

    Glad to hear I'm not the only emotional male. Historical sites, a beautiful picture, a wonderful piece of music, even a good story telling, will bring a lump to the throat and a tear to the eye. And I am not ashamed to have others see it. My late Father taught me that a man shows emotion rather...

    Thanks Zathros. Knew about Papermau for awhile, figured everyone else did. Think I'll start posting some of thr ones I know. Right now he has a *retrospective* of his models in one download. Darn, where's WiFi when I need it? There are models I haven't seen before. Think it's 50 in all.

    U.S.S. Aironza Memorial by Inky in Downloads

    Sorta mixed. Was there to save the marriage (didn't work) 2nd time. First time was happier. Standing over an historical site like this brought tears to my eyes. Same thing happened at the green in Lexington. Knowing the history of a spot and then actually see it....

    I'm still working on the interior pix. My camers suddenly does not like *any* of the memory sticks I put in. But then, it's 10 years old. Just as an FYI, the galley clock, water heater and wall heater are all original to the boat. You'll both get copies when my camera cooperates. Soon, I promise.

    An addendum. Hope this doesn't sound wrong. Will the plans be put up for downloading by others when the planning is finished? There were only 97 built and it wouldbe a hoot knowing that there might be more than that being built around the world. And I'd promise that one of those would be mine...

    Thank you Inky, Zathros and Cuthbert. Yesterday and today I was on Rendezvous. Got some interior pictures but no exteriors. Since he lives on R on weekends (and this week as he's on a mini-vacation) the boat was messy. He also found the wooden British call sign plaque that he's going to remount...

    Trebuchet 1/25

    One of the models I keep meaning to build, it's so gppd looking. Thought about building a working wooden version of this as well. Make the card part, then reproduce it in wood (another medium that I have no experience with...) Just as an FYI, one reason trebuchets were such excellent weapons...

    Just realized, that cutaway is not Mike's boat. He has no cabin aft/below of the pilot house. The galley picture did not come through when I looked. Will resend. Let's try these.

    Here are some of Da Kine/Rendezvous. Also some from the manufacturer. Had to show the galley, and that contraption on the wall is the water heater. One of the repair projects. Ever try to find parts from 1972. Mike ended up cutting an old wetsuit to make some of thr gaskets.

    Hello Inky, thought it might be you when I saw the thread on The Most Dangerous. Now all I have to do is figure out how to upload. R is about 35 miles from here and over the *roller coaster* bridge (Richmond-San Rafael.... another card project?). I'll drive over soon and get some pix, especially...
