I saved a glue bomb Boot Hill kit. I gave it life as my Reaper's Rod. Tonight I handed it Death due to my carelessness. I'm like a bull in a china shop at times.. I bumped into my photo stand causing the shop light to fall onto it with a crash and parts going every where. No way I'm rebuilding it again but will find a place for the parts to live again... So here's a last look at The Reaper's Rod.. BiLL..

Had the EXACT same thing happen to me a few years ago! Blowd it up real good. I did restore it tho. Almost had a similar thing happen to El CaMeano tonite whilst attempting to foto the tiny painted emblem on the engine...I better stay away from it for a while!!! Bummer, MAD M , I was really diggin this one!

I get the same way sometimes, where I end up doing more damage than good! I have spells from arthritis too, where I just drop stuff ALL the time. (I'll drop a lens or a tool 10 times in just a few minutes, it's frustrating)
Give er' a fitting rebuild so we can enjoy it again! It's a great build, and deserves another life!

I think many of us are getting to that point where we're dropping things like tools, parts, whatever, a lot. Sorry to hear about this build getting demolished like that. It looked really kool.

When I was in my early teens I was firing spit wads around the room with a rubber band and took aim on a B-24 hanging from the ceiling and proceeded to shoot it down - much to my amazement and horror. It died an honorable death in flames.
