Been fernagling a wing all day——getting pipes to look about right on a midget is a right royal pain .leaves me with three midget wings —-all in solid ALLUMINIUM ready for “Under the bench”. These bit the dust before i finally cobbled one fit for consumption.
Everyone recognises “THE RED BIRD” , so i cant just stick a rough configuration of a wing and hope to get away with it!!!
Same with the“AEROMARINE 1V” . Iconic boats seem to stick in everyone’s mind !!!
Nothing like a piss - poor rendition of a song to get folk ticking—so i have to tread lightly .
As my headmaster at Halifax Tech [WILLIAM ROCHESTER HASWELL] ONCE TOLD ME FOR THE TENTH TIME ———“ WILSON—-YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT !!!!!!!!

Slowly—slowly—catchee monkey. Doesn’t look a lot different —but I still have ambition !!!!!! After beavering away all weekend and monday and tuesday. There is a light at the end of the tunnel . Just three More pieces and a prop and im there. End of the week i hope to have another pair of concepts ready for the oven ??????
Attachment 515500 Had to take some time out with three of my great grandkids . They spent the day at the “FLYING FORTRESS’; on FORD aerodrome and needed to be fed . Hot Dogs and Pasta — ice cream and apples . Nothing like grandkids for making the cupboard bare. But i love ‘em all to bits.
Where do you come up with these expressions and how do you have the energy to keep up with all these grandkids. Happy Valentine’s Day and I still think that red Bird man’s trophy looks like a damn champagne fountain.Quote:

Always knew it was never going to be easy to do this particular concept ——- constants were far too many ——- fire engines ——-and a guy who is 91 years old ———fastback Ford Mustang ——-piper Malibu——-Kawasaki 100ZR —all of which the man had owned for over forty years ———- oh yea and along the way had driven circle boats including SWITZER WINGS——— offshore winning powerboats .
Done far more than me and you will ever do in our lives . Spends six months in the mountains and rest of his time in the sun .
And another think Charlie ——-there are worse things in life than a feckin champagne fountain !!!!!!
As i said before -we still have the freedom of speech and can still voice an opinion and not give a flying fart or a rats asse how much it pisses some folk off without fear of retribution !!!!!!!!!!!
Rattling your cageThank God for the first amendment over here Jackie. Don’t take anything I say seriouslyThank God for the first amendment over here Jackie. Don’t take anything I say seriously I just like to rattle your cage And you’re right the man has done more than you and I combined that’s why I always regard him as one of my life idols. I had the pleasure of being around him years ago at Java’s I And watched him in offshore in the early years. Don’t worry Jackie you’re still number twoAnd watched him in offshore in the early years. Don’t worry Jackie you’re still number two.And maybe Jean will invite us to drink champagne out of your creation lolQuote:

Finally just about nailed it. Happy with the boats—— and the Mustang——and the two Fire trucks —-not quite up-to muster is the Bike——— need to keep an eye out for the right one , so the NINJA will have to do.[for now]
Will keep looking for a white sheltie —-or do i keep the oversize Highly polished Bronze casting ?????
base has a green baize bottom so it wont mark any surface .
Crap photos as usual—- but i might have another crack at it between now and November.
...nice plates...;)...
Wonder where he acquired those ????????Quote:

Best to take the first and not worry about it.
next time ,simply wait for the concept to be finished before commenting—- remember CAIN and ABEL AND THE PART FINISHED WALL.
Not that I would ever “SMITE THEE” Charlie ????? I AM A PEACE LOVING PERSON [or is it a “PIECE LOVING PERSON”. ????
You have to admit Gene—-i did get the Miami engine about right— and the Mustang— verdict is out on the little doggie——— and i know the bike’s wrong. BUT I DO HAVE AMBITION [STILL]Quote:

On second thought Gene Tribute piece might look better as the centerpiece on the salad bar. 😂 LOL. I’m bleeding first amendment rights Jackie but I think it’s a wonderful looking piece that you went to a lot of effort to honor one of our local Miami racers and all around good guy. At least this machine is understanding me a little bit this morning and not doubling up on everything I say. Best always Amber JackQuote:
