On the other hand – there are some truly remarkable fellow modelers on the forum, so I’ll do my best to lean into those friends rather than allowing the others to take the joy out of my participation.

Paul! I'm so pleased that you are back at it and back in it. I often wonder about the failure to differentiate between perfection and excellence. I wonder too, whether getting it perfect doesn't just get in the way of striving for excellence in addition to being blasphemous.

Thank you for your decision to continue to share your striving for excellence, my friend! So, I'm onboard as usual - already in awe:D

Blessings. Peace. Gratitude.

The only advice I can offer you is to allow these geometric problems to percolate for a while before acting. It’s amazing what powers the sub-conscious has for problem-solving, while our active brain is doing other things.

Couldn't agree more! I had to think about a problem for 6 months until my "aha!" moment came.ROTF Some how, Paul, I don't think you'll need quite as long.

Blessings.

Hi Paul, I've been out of circulation for a number of months but was delighted to return to the forum and find that you've started a new build. Looking forward to following your progress, which, going by your previous builds, will no doubt be interesting, informative, and successful :)

…… This announcement is most unexpected as it was only one short week ago, during a wellness check initiated by his devoted wife of forty years, that agents overheard Dr. Kattner run together a string of profane words rarely heard in civilized society. This from an eyewitness, "never before have I heard profanity elevated to the level of art. The subject's ability to keep tempo, rhythm, and crescendo in such perfect balance while simultaneously providing such breadth of vulgarity...it was breathtaking. The man is a walking thesaurus of obscenity!"

Truly beautiful work Paul, so much so I’m practicing your technique before I grab an hour at the workbench today ROTF.

" I am just a vagabond
a drifter on the run,
and eloquent profanity just rolls right off my tongue...

And I have dined in palaces,
drunk wine with kings and queens,
But darlin', oh darlin'
You're the best thing I've ever seen"-
from "Roll 'Em Easy" by Lowell George of "LIttle Feat"

I always could appreciate a well-formed, zaftig butt! Thumbsup Thumbsup ;)

Pete! You got there before me! As I was absorbing the lovely curves of the "butt end" of this ship, I was remided of Paul's mermaid carving for Kingfisher. I thought it might be to indiscrete to point out Paul's obvious fascination (one I share in spades ROTF) with in your words "a well-formed, zafting (excellent word choice, Pete!) butt!"

Blessings.
