Scissors.. Found.. Inquisition called off...
Posted by p38jl on Tuesday, April 24, 2012 10:00 AM

for those of you that followed my old thread about my missing scissors.. ! They turned up last night!! they were hiding not more than 3 ft from my bench.. on top of a kit of a Hasagawa Captured Zero, and under about 6-7 kits and AM and PE kits in my stash...Whistling

For those that didn't.. these are my oldest modeling tool I stil had.. I stole em off my mom's sewing basket when I was a young teen... ( I am now.. 47  ).. and I lost em 2 Xmas' ago after a marathon wrapping session...

glad to have them back ! Yes

I'd laugh except that I've done the same thing about a zillion times myself... Sad

Awesome scissors! I can see why you missed them.

I had a similar incident. I dismantled the old Cousteau ship Calypso and put the parts somewhere that I forgot!

About a year later I was rearranging my stash and the box of a completed kit (I keep all my boxes of built kits) slid off the shelf, onto the floor, scattering the Calypso parts everywhere. I thought "so that is where you've been hiding!!!" Also inside was the fancy contoured rubberized X-acto knife that I didnt even know was missing because I'd forgotten about buying it.  I seriously do not remember putting either item in that box.

I have a pair of Kamisori scissors my wife won when she was a hair stylist. She got out of the business shortly afterward and gave me the scissors. I've used them exclusively to cut out decals for 5 years and they are still as sharp as a brand new razor blade. They retail for about $400. Surprise
