After spending the night at work, so I wouldn't have to drive into work, in the dark, during a blizzard, I drove home from work at noon still at the peak of the same blizzard. Arrived home and immediately went to work the snowblower while the snow was still coming down. Took 2 hours to clear the driveway. By 6:30, the snow has stopped, so I went out to do session 2 of snow removal. This time it took 1.5hr. Hopefully, there won't too much snow drift on the driveway by the time I leave for work tomorrow morning.
 
I'm currently listening to some music and watching the original Disney Beauty and the Beast on Disney+. I was also looking around at RC stuff on my favorite hobby shop sites i might go run one of my cars later today when it warms up a bit since it's around 60 F.
 
I am trying to put pressure on our builder, if you guys can spare room on your subscriptions list I would love some follows.

Here's episode one



The hope is we can get a structural report and go after them with a Real estate lawyer.

Thumbs up, shares, likes, anything to gain some traction.

I'll film episode two tomorrow. I'll make a repair in the kitchen.
 
I've been hanging out in my room watching stuff also took a few pics of my XO-1 with my Spektrum iXSR+.

Taxes. Prep and file.
I use Turbo Tax and got a reminder e-mail for a big discount ending today, so I did 'em while I was drinking my coffee!
Ugggghhhh its that time of the year again!
 
I saved a kitchenaid professional 600 mixer from the dumpster a couple weeks ago. Today I finally got around to replacing the speed control board, selector switch, and cleaned out/relubed the gear box. Running great!! Now I need to track down the meat grinder attachment they make and this thing will save me a ton of time and hand/shoulder involvement with kitchen duties.

I have a grinder that's never been used for that 600.
 
finally finished this thing.
aftermarket wheels and kinda tires (i didn't like the low pros that came with the wheels so i hogged out a set from another kit that were a bigger diameter) added the disc brakes from my parts bin. lowered the stance significantly. shaved all the trim, custom made the tonneau cover, ditched the rear bumper and custom made and molded in a roll pan.
was trying to make a 1/24 version of a truck i would have busted a nut to when i was 12 and sport trucks were all the rage. its just sitting on the shelf and i can practically hear Offsprings Smash album blasting out of it. :cool:

"Head over heels I've fit in before...."

Used to blast that album all the time.

Damn that looks good bro, nice job!
 
I had a slow Sunday where i watched stuff on Disney+ and watched videos of RC's. Also if no one has noticed i updated a few of my build showcase posts to feature my iXSR+ with my cars but i have considered deleting the posts of cars i don't own anymore like my last X-Maxx and my old Hoss. Let me know if you think i should delete them or keep them on here as archived posts.

I just never understood making a truck, that can't do truck things. 🤣

Nice model. :)
