Regina Scale Modellers - November 2003

The Parts BoxHello again and welcome to the third instalment of theparts box brought to you by the wonders of onlineaccess or the not so wonderful mail service.

With fall upon us and winter coming around the bend,we will be soon into the prime building season formany of us. Nothing like building some plastic to makethe 20 hours per day of 40 below darkness go quicker.

I personally hate winter. I loathe and abhor it. I hate thecold, the dark and the word windchill. I hate the chit-chat about the cold, the dark and the windchill. Ugh.

But I do like the extra time I can spend building. Itgives me a false sense of hope that maybe someday Imight actually get all the kits I have towering over mein my model room done. And I do want them all done.

I am not a collector but a builder. My problem is thedeficit of built kits as compared to the newcomers towall. Maybe this is a problem all of us face to certaindegree.

To me when buying a kit, one of two things happens.

1. Bring a kit home and then quickly open it up,surveying the pieces, decals instructions, and so forth,then on the shelf it goes, waiting for its turn on theworkbench.

2. The kit makes such an impression it immediatelymoves to the front of the line, much to the other kits’chagrin. After all, they have been patiently waitingtheir turn and then this happens! Sometimes I find a kithas fallen from the wall, or at least that is what Ialways thought. Maybe due to frustration they jumped,or worse yet, were pushed!

Regardless of when the kit gets started, I find that I canacquire kits faster than I can build them! Not arevelation I know, but a problem nonetheless.

I have found that I enjoy a kit more when it is on theworkbench, or even better on the table at a meeting.And although the paint might not be perfect, and thefoil job could be better and the engine isn’t thatdetailed - it is done. And more importantly, off the wall(no pun intended).

So what is the answer to this dilemma of too many kitsand not enough time?

I don’t know what the answer is, but I find that the onlything that seems to help is building. Funny how that is.

Until next time,Keep your blades sharp and your brushes clean.

Paint Recycle Day, Saturday, Aug. 16, 2003

What a day! As a rookie, I found the experience, as Mr.Spock would say, "most interesting". The event wasscheduled to run from 8:30am 'til noon, but the hugeline-up resulted in the club processing paint until about1pm. The line started with about 10 vehicles in the

Regina Scale Modellers - November 2003

queue well before we opened, and it grew and shrankthroughout the morning. Vehicles were often seenqueued from our spot in the north-east corner of theWalmart South parking lot, winding down the roadfronting Chapters, proceeding north down the righthand turn lane on Albert Street south, and then makinga left to come to an eventual end part way down theeast bound parking lane on Gordon Road.

I'm sure that Ron sighed in relief when he saw thenumber of volunteers that actually arrived. At one pointthere were only five confirmed participants.

The plan was to start processing two vehicles at a time,and then go to three at a time. Well, towards the end,we managed to get up to four vehicles unloaded at atime.

Right from the start it was slow going as the secondvehicle in line was a pickup with its bed completelyfilled with old paint. Turns out it belonged to the Re-Store which works in conjunction with the City torecycle paint.

All in all, the day was a success, and we managed toprocess over 450 vehicles. A big thank you goes out toDwight Mercer from the City of Regina for his help,wisdom (his re-hydration reminders kept us all frombecoming human prunes) and time. Also, thanks go outto club members who donated their time and sweat (thetemperature was at least 32 degrees) - Ron Gall, DaveKapp, John Kapp, Len Schmidt, Tim Maw, Neil Hill,Kyle Stevens, Larry Draper, Darin Wielgoz and BrianMiller. Hopefully I have everyone accounted for.

Al Magnus

Dave Kapp Sounds Off!

First of all let me start out by saying 2 things: One I donot condone murder (very often) and two I am a bigLaw & Order fan. But after viewing an episode of Law& Order SVU last week, I feel I must vent.

On this particular episode the murder was committedby a man who was apparently stealing cars from deadpeople’s estates or something like that. It seems that hewas doing this because of a bad childhood. The badchildhood was because...get ready for this: in 1969 hisdad bought him a snap-together model kit instead of adetailed kit for his birthday!

The whole case was solved by the detective thatstutters (not Lenny, another guy) finding a model carpart laying on a closet floor in this murderer’schildhood bedroom. The detective immediately

identified it as being a rear view mirror from a '57Chevy Belair built in (get this) 1969!

I don’t remember models having any sort of distinctmirrors in 1969! As I recall if they did have mirrorsthey were likely to be little blobs of chrome plastic-certainly not detailed enough to tell by looking that itwas from a '57 Chevy Belair. Even now if you gave mea box of mirrors and asked me to find the '57 ChevyBelair mirror I bet I couldn’t pick it out. And I knowmy model mirrors.

Then the idiots trot out this guy’s model collectionfrom 1969 as evidence. That’s thirty five years, people!And for models that many years old, they really stucktogether well! And heavy? They sounded suspiciouslylike die-cast to me when they set them down!

Wait - there’s more...

Then they find a model box for a Ferrari model. Thisthing is about the size of a shoe box for Kareem AbdulJabaar or whatever his name is. Or some other guy withreally big feet. The top of the box looked a bit like amodel box but the sides were plain red. Why didn'tthey get that guy that Dean buys all of his fake boxesfrom and at least make it look a little bit real? Its calleda hobby store, writers. Maybe you could visit one ifyou’re researching a show on models. Dang!

Then there is the whole question of snap together kitsin 1969. Did they even have snap togethers in 1969? Ididn’t think so, but to be sure I dug out my 1969vintage Auto World catalogue and checked. Nope, noteven a hint of a snap kit.

The point of my rant? If your going to portraymodellers as killers at lease get the facts kind ofstraight. On the other hand any publicity for modellersis good publicity, even if it portrays us a psychos!
