Or,,,,,,,,,,,, also like me, they probably drank too much last night.

Unfortunately, there was no drink involved. I just enjoy the simple pleasures in life, and your Grasshopper is the definition of a simple pleasure.

Very impressive. I got a kick out of the "scale" trash in the trash can. I'd love to have a real garage like that!

Ditto! Plus I really like your color choices!

And now there's two builds: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=46375 ?!?! Great scott! Looking forward to your vision as well!

Too bad the stadium truck wheels wouldn't work. But your progress has been very satisfying to follow. I get frustrated too easily with similar projects, and I probably would have thrown everything across the room a long time ago. But you stuck with it and hit the nail on the head. Great job! BTW, th...
