Nice!
I'm thinkin', maybe a "model-off" between you and doodabug, with us voting!
Yeah!
We could all vote on a theme, and each of you has to create three interpretations/embodiments of that theme!
Heck yeah!
Forrest
It would be like junkyard wars (a TV show).

Thanks for pointing that out, to those of us bereft of that art.

Ladieees...and Gentlemen, Now presenting the steve and doodabug model-off.
Bought to you here nearly live courtesies of Taunton Press and the cliental of FHB's Breaktime Forum.
The establishment of the ground rules will be formulated from BT members in the event any are needed.
Hence, as mentioned, we could all vote on a theme, and each has to create three interpretations/embodiments of that theme!
However, it is requested of McDesign that a more detailed description of what is meant by three interpretations/embodiments of that theme! be given.
And of course the model-off is open to all interested members if so inclined.
Or separate entries of single models for display outside of the competition being desired also. Permitted for honorable mentions from any interested party for the goodwill and fun of it all.
May the recommendations towards the theme be given here and later a vote tabulated.
Suggestions beginning now.
Parolee # 53804
A working Lull.
A Sprinter work van.
A Caterpillar.
I think those would be great because I have them done already.
1. A 'Scotts' push lawn mower. (All moving parts)
2. The Smithsonian tool chest from decades old FWW back cover.
3. Biltmore. As in Asheville NC. Operable windows and doors optional.

I wondered why my ears were ringing. I thought themes were for proms.
