I thought that scheme was known as "Lizard" or something like that, not heard of it called "Jaws". I like the scheme regardless of what it's called though. :thumbsup:

Word was that it was pretty effective but the USAF never went for it.

It will, just don't give up! I keep taking breaks from my own fall cleaning and it's dragging onnnnnn and onnnnn....

Looks like a nice result right there, though, and motivation to keep going, I'd say. I know it always seems to help me if I can just get one section or one shelf or one bin cleaned up and organized.

I like your lights in the table under plexiglass bit you have goin on there and nice shelves!! I want to make about 4 million some day myself.

A good set of shelve does solve a lot of problems.
A good trash can solves the rest.....

I had to do that with a bunch of mags. Dumped an entire set of encyclopedias from the basement as no one was using them and all out of date

I'd have to check shipping prices, but possibly. Maybe smuggle them into the States and then ship them from there.

If anything, to avoid a bit of regret? I threw away a ton of stuff when I was a kid that I built as a kid and kick myself for it now... I had tons of cool stuff ranging from WWII bombers to Star Trek to dually pick up trucks. None of it was properly built or finish and was all "garbage" compared to some finished kit by someone knowing what they are doing but if I still HAD all that stuff now?! I could repair it, fix it, build it, bash it, etc. In the least, I could have given it to someone else.  I regret my foolishness!  Your models being good as they are, someone would definitely want them. Of course, bundling them up to be shipped can be a pain but if someone is getting them free or for cost to have them shipped I doubt they would mind gluing things back together so I don't imagine elaborate safeguarding would be needed. Huck it in a box with some tissue paper and write fragile on it and call it good. "some assembl required... "   LOL

Save the whales? Heck, save the styrene!  :D

A large number of models I built way back when met their fate via BB gun or firecrackers!
