Thanks for sharing. I posted a suggestion to your blog but in case it doesnt show up… Has to do with your using the German firm for basing and the video you posted. >>Thanks for sharing the video on the flight stands. If you buy buy washers to add weight, get steel ones and not aluminium as the former are heavier. I have seen some folks use 2 flight stands, for their larger aircraft. The stands are glued together on a thin steel rectangle with the mounting points on the aircraft corresponding to where the stand columns woulld be. See Wargames Accessories-Metal Base Stands for various sizes available. They are thin so should not affect the TAL visual unlike an thick MDF base would.>>

You mentioned OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder). I am wondering about this being made into a poll question, something along the lines of "How many of us think we are at least a bit OCD?" I am thinking a lot of us would have to concede that we are at least a tad on the OCD side.

Grelber, as a surgical instrument maker, OCD was never a production issue, unless there was a lack of efficiency (speed) attained towards task completion.

Follow-through seems to be a bigger issue in this hobby. (?)
