Paul B Technic

I sent my wife a list this week with some suggestions, what I don't get given I will buy for myself. 42007 - Motor Cross Bike 9392 - Quad Bike 9394 - Jet Plane 9395 - Pick up Tow Truck

Sounds like you could to be on to a good thing. my wife also meets all the above, I even had her helping me build a set on the weekend :)

Latest photos of my "new" set up which I am building at the moment. http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z11/tanger32au/25112013_MySetup2_zps4daa4227.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z11/tanger32au/25112013_MySetup1_zps04972159.jpg

Out of those I think only the skip bin truck really jumps out at me.

Nice collection.

Excellent work guys. Would you mind me posting this on my blog?

That is very cool, thanks for sharing.

Not a happy ending :( Well the day I got back to work he came and saw me as soon as I walked in the door. I told him I would have a chat with him at lunch time. By then he had printed out heaps of stuff on line and had a list of sets he wanted to buy. At lunch time I sat down with him and explained the hobby, some of the things I do and sets I like. He seemed happy enough and decided to buy a couple of small TECHNIC sets to start off. Over the next week I was busy off site and I didn't see much of him. When I did get back on site the next week he grabbed me and asked some questions, this didn't take long and I was happy to help him out. The weeks following this he sent me heaps of emails with questions, links to sites and sets and also asking for advice on what to buy. I replied and made it very clear that if he wants to talk to me he should do this during break times as I am busy with my work. Come to the end of last week and he brought in one of the sets he has been working on (42000) as he was having a problem with it. I told him I was happy to look at it for a few minutes after work. Twice during the day he came and saw me to ask questions about it. The third time this happened I went and saw his manager about it. Now he is in trouble for not doing his work and stopping me from doing mine. It seems over the past month he has been spending heaps of time on the Internet and building sets at his desk instead of working like he should.

Those are some good looking mods, well done.

Some photos of my latest building set up. I have removed my yellow shelves and now have a second 6 foot table, this is a lot more flexible and gives me a better space to build and display my LEGO collection. http://paulstechnic.blogspot.com.au/2013/10/my-building-set-up-october-2013.html

Totally understandable, feel free to send me a PM if you want.

As a "serious question", have you spoken to a doctor or other medical professional about this and how you are feeling?

That is a very cool looking bus.

I have a small screwdriver which is the perfect size for pushing out axles.

That is very nice, looks good.

That is amazing, very well done.

Thanks for the feedback, I think I might just pull this down and turn it back in to the A model.

UPDATE - 5/10/2013 Following some advice and feedback I have made a number of changes to this body to improve it. These changes include: - New front section with a better colour scheme, more consistent colour use and better looking. - Change to roof mounted lights. - Change to roof mounted aerial location - Rear body is now the same colour (Red) and the mounting points for this are now changed and improved.

I like what you have done, does make it look much better.

Today's purchase. http://paulstechnic.blogspot.com.au/2013/10/new-set-8858-rebel-wrecker.html

Don't encourage me ;)

Thanks for the feedback. Red and black are the only colours I have much of :(

Sadly no I don't have many spare parts, most are in sets I have built. I am planning on buying some more sets to part out later in the year.

Thanks for all the feedback, the white strip is what I am going to try next. I would say lower by quite a bit.
