    A decade

    February 2024, I've been here 10 years, spoken to some interesting characters, seen some totally amazing builds and some not so amazing builds but the builder is still praised for effort and given advice on how to build better... a caring, sharing community is what I'm part of!
    Thanks for all the tips and advice I've read and been given :hugging-face:
    Mojo is at an all-time low at the moment, my M21 is sat on my bench looking sorry for itself... :confounded:

    Happy 10th anniversary to me

              I didn't know this place existed until a few weeks ago, the natives seem friendly and staff aren't overly... erm... Obtuse?
              I think I'm going to like it here

                          Good grief is it that long already, it only seems like yesterday it was the forum (MM) that we do not mention that had us as its guests

                          You cannot be talking about that site where they can get the latest multi thousand part kit and have it built, painted and weathered over a weekend where I joined for a few hours and after offering constructive criticism was informed that because of my attitude 'I would not be on the site for very long'... And after as I said a few hours I departed after a good explanation of what a reamer was and where it fitted....

                            Beware, we are leading you into a false sense of security, after a while you mysteriously vanish to be sold of in the slave markets of some third world country, your wife is left with a cardboard cutout of you and is happy that she can chat all day without interuption, and it is really the moderators that are doing all the modelling under your name.... Me, they have not caught me yet as I am down in the sewer, living under the manhole cover at the end of my street - see how clever I am, they would never think of looking for me there....

                              Doug, was it you that was looking for one of those knives that take the strip of blades, if so pm me your address and I will mail it to you, or if it was any other victim.
                              As for the dram, my excuse is the top came off in my hand....
