Any other insomniacs here? I'm either glued to this site or wrenching on one of my RC's.

Nonsense. The only thing better than sleep is a coma.

I want to set up a dry erase like that in my basement, so I can have a place to draw/ mock up things for builds. And so the kids can scribble all over it and all I have to do is wash it off. :mrgreen: Rather than scribbled walls!

I sleep during the day and its been like that for over a decade now. I've just always been a night person my entire life but wasn't able to stay up due to school. Once that was done it was goodbye daytime for me. :P But really, I normally go to sleep between 7:00-10:00 in the morning and wake up sometime in the afternoon to early evening. Although on occasion I do have to force myself to go to bed early if I need to be up during the day for some reason.

Also sometimes I'll stay up for two days and then sleep for like 13 hours.

Its exactly 3:00am here right now.

Yeah, I've done that before. Probably not going to get much sleep, if any at all tonight. New RC10T coming in mail today. Probably going to spend most of the day and night cleaning, tuning, rebuilding. :D

The "dry erase" sheets sold at Depot and Lowes work great and are realitivy cheap. I think I paid about $20 a sheet and another $20-$30 bucks for a 5 gal of paneling glue. I did two wall in my office (now shop) and it works great, and looks really nice too.
