Promise Not to Laugh ??
Posted by Tanker-Builder on Tuesday, April 26, 2022 1:53 PM

Hi;

        I have been thinking about doing a model of the Space Shuttle on the pad (before Launch). I think someone heard my thinking. We hada absolutely lousy rainy day, with local flooding as well. That local flooding must've gone through someone's Plastic Pipe Stash!!

      I now have a piece of pipe six foot long and four inches in Diameter plus a whole section of Two inch sections and a few Connectors. I saw this in the drive and of course went,"Huh"? I haven't bought the stuff because of cost.Now I don't have to worry about it. Some large and small Plastic Eggs for the Bottom and some funnels and I will have my yard built Shuttle.

      Oh! It's gonna be a water fountain in the yard for birds and other critters. I am using the adjustable kitchen sink nozzles for the engines! Now, if it works I will have the Ultimate RedNeck Bird Bath!

I swear I did not laugh, but I think I speak for most of us here when I say we expect some pictures once your masterpiece is done.

Well, I'm glad my neighbor doesn't think like you, TB.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

AWWW!

     Come on now, It's an idea! This is the time to really think, Guys and Ladies, What have we done in the past or even thought about when we saw something that was useful? It's not a Given because my H.O.A. would probably make me remove it! Yeah, they even get away with interferring with folk's back yards around here. You should've seen the Nasty letter we got for putting a storage shed behind the house. You cannot see it from the street and just barely over the fence.They told us, First we didn't get their permission and secondly it was the wrong color.

    Do you really think, even it it was beautifully done and classy looking they would care? NOPE! So the Bird-Bath Space Shuttle and Lifting Body will be a vision only! But what I was trying to impart "G" was that anything Can and Should be Fodder for a Modeler/Creator! What would you build? A 1/16th scale Pontoon Boat? See, the sky is the Limit!

     Just getting back here on June two. The H.O.A. intereferred again. My friend on the board said to them leave it the he((( alone!. They said we didn't have permission to plant three trees in the yard.Who is their spy? My tubes were up and I was ready to paint the Birdbath. Thank Goodness I didn't have it all glued together yet! I believe H.O.A.s and the requirement that you MUST endorse one when you buy a House is B.S.
