I'm just now getting ready to start up on my projects again. I really need to learn to focus on one project at a time so I can actually finish something.

I'll be starting on the supermod and RC12E Vette again. The Vette is nearly done so I'll finish that one first. Also restoring a vintage control line plane. Just got the old McCoy .29 apart and I'll be sending it off for new piston rings shortly. Can't wait to hear that old engine running again. Also picked up a Tamiya 1/10 Toyota Celica LB Turbo Gr.5 - TT01E. Looking forward to building that one.

Threw the Losi Strike on the bench today, got it ready and then ran the crap out of it for a bit with my daughter. Had a blast! Hadn't turned a wheel in about 6 months. :D

I got this ECX Torment from a family member yesterday because he was frustrated with it. Very little TLC on the bench today and I had a little fun with it. It's a 1/18th 4wd. Not super high quality, but worth the time for a leisurely drive on a Sunday.

Not exactly on the bench, but for that last few months I have grown to like my dedicated RC hex key holding solution (which also holds extra e clips). Easier than using small containers or drawers and very secure.
