Does anyone know of a decent supplier of Quicktracks and/or Panzerwerk tracks in the UK or do I need to order from Poland? Thanks in advance. 😁👍 #histscalemodels #scalemodels

Weekend write up. www.oldmanscuriosities.com/2025/06/that... #scalemodel #histscalemodel

As promised, here is a link to the photos from yesterday's modelcon. Should be a little something for everyone. #scalemodel #histscalemodel drive.google.com/drive/folder...

I now have a small stash to build. Todays show was a first of many things to come for me. I look forward to sharing. I'll upload pictures later and share them out. #scalemodel #histscalemodel

So I cried when I got home from the show. My wife isn't here, to see that her Thunderbird took gold. It's retired with a bronze & gold. My Lost Germans diorama took gold. Both my tanks took silver. I added quite a bit to my stash and have a lot to build. #scalemodel #histscalemodel 1 of 2

Last night after storm sky. Something actually relaxing about it.

My haul for today. #scalemodel #histscalemodel

Just a few photos from the beginning. I'm seeing some massive painting abilities. #chattanoogamodelcon25

Oh #cloudflare what have you done! At least it's not #Friday13th

I guess it's time for me to move on. www.oldmanscuriosities.com/2025/06/time... #histscalemodels #scalemodels

Anyone hitting up the Chattanooga Modelcon next weekend? www.chattanoogamodelers.com/files/forms%... #scalemodels #historicscalemodels

So, I leave in the morning to head to FL for my wife's funeral services on Saturday. I still have to finish rewriting my speech, get things together that have to go with me and then drive what should be a 9hr trip, that will most likely end up 12+. As much as I miss her, I want this over.

Only bright side today is an unexpected visitor.

This weekend has been extremely difficult. I am working on about 7-7 1/2 hrs of sleep since Friday. It's getting to where I can't sleep in my own bed without my wife there as well. I was able to deep clean the bedroom on Saturday but I don't remember much of it.

So I picked up another 65 Thunderbird. My wife bought one 2 years ago that I built. I will take hers to the show next month one last time . As a personal tribute, I am going to rebuild a new one since I've learned so much over the last 3 years. #scalemodel #histscalemodel

@aoc.bsky.social Can you light a fire under people to block this? Seems our Illusion of Grandeur officials won't take calls or respond to communications. infosec.exchange/@Fringedcrow...

missing my wife, more and more everyday.

Updating policies, bills, etc. since the wife is no longer with us has been a nightmare. It's not a privacy issue, but a WTF, where was this type of issue. At least my car Insurance and renters insurance is still in tact.

for those of you have done building dio's from scratch with foam board, what did you use to print worn and weathered poster sign that take up a good portion of a wall? I was thinking plain printer paper that was wet and slightly shredded before gluing to the wall. Thoughts, idea's? #HistScaleModels

This day is not going so well. Been telling myself, it's ok. Then we got the obituary published. www.careyhandcolonialfh.com/obituaries/v...

My old suit no longer fits. Would cost more to have it tailored, so i ended up going to get a new suit for my wife's funeral. Talk about surreal. I'm in the store with a bunch of seniors getting fitted for tux's, trying not to break down while talking to the store associate.

Tried some therapy shopping to help with the wife's passing. Didn't help, but I came across this. Should be cool to put together once I feel like building again. Everything's still in plastic. #scalemodels #histscalemodels

since my wife passed on monday, this week's been hell. Still finalizing funeral services, still have to cancel remainder of her cards and accounts. Went back to work yesterday and will work today. But i'm not doing much.

Not only is my wife in hospice care, my doggo passed away in the middle of the night. My tears have been all over the floor for awhile now.

Have noticed a flurry of "for sale" posts on FB. Most are lot sales. People starting to realize what's happening and trying to secure a few extra funds?

I'm so proud of my nephew. Has placed multiple times in regionals and states for NY and TN and is a multi All American recipient. Now he's off to college.

They dropped off the equipment for my wife's home hospice. Sadly I don't think she'll make it home to use it. If she does, I won't get any sleep because the concentrater are overly loud.

My girls. Have some new strings I want to try out and need to upgrade the LP tunning pegs to locking ones.

The Easter Bunny (actually my tax refund) brought me a gift today.
