Let's see, I've got five cars in various stages of being built so I guess I need to finish those builds. Of those five, I got four car bodies from RMS and I've only completed one which was the 66 mustang. I started a TR4 many months ago but got hung up on the interior so it sits on the corner of my bench. Then I have a 96 Mustang Cobra body to scan and scale down to 1/32 and print out. But I need to teach myself how to use the new scanner. But I do have some new chassis modeled up in my computer, but the printer went down so those haven't gone anywhere. Looks like all I have is a lot of excuses so I better get busy and start doing something about the ones that I can finish this weekend.

A little late but I have a few slot car resolutions for 2015:

* Create and print a 3D slot car. The tech is on the table for years now and I need to try the 21st century scratch building.

* Add some vintage body styles to the nymodifieds.com site.

* Scratch build more 1/24 Vintage Islip Speedway Modifieds.

* Scratch build using the 'slotless slot car' mag-racing design. I need to get a little more out of the 21st century 'Authentic Model Turnpike'.

* Lose 10-15 lbs.

Aside from the last one they are all sort of scratch built related.

Well... Some that need finishing by April for proxies...
i) Lotus 24
ii) Porsche 550 Spyder
iii) SCX Evo 8

Then I resolve to find my desktop somewhere under the piles of parts and paints and glues. And then try to keep it that way.
