So very true. This is a great bunch of folks here!

Uh huh! uh huh!

….and I listened to most of it before posting. So ashamed.

But did you dance to it as well?

Now, back to regularly scheduled programming.

You guys are a hoot.

Well......the livestock show is now officially over. Our son placed fifth with his pig and for his first year that wasn't bad. We had a fairly sad morning this morning as we had to say goodbye to piggy but Joseph is handling it pretty well.

We didn't have to go feed a pig tonight so you know what that means?? It's BENCHTIME!!!! I had initially primed the interior pieces to include the tub. I was looking at it even with the ejector pin marks on the floor and thinking to myself, "Yeah.....that's gonna......no....no it aint gonna work!!" The ejector pin mark, even though it's in a terrible place I can actually deal with. More on that in a minute. That chintzy brake and accelerator pedal just isn't gonna do at all.



So ………...I put my thinkin' cap on..

I found another floorboard from a parts kit that I've got in the stash and cut the whole section out of this floor board. Then I cut a section out from the parts donor.



Then the replacement piece was glued into place.



We'll be using some PE pedals to have a little more true to scale and true to references look. Now to address those disgusting ejector pin marks. Those...…..will be covered up by these floor mats that I acquired which just came in the mail a couple of days ago.
