Thunderbird Club

Big enough for a Thunderbird Club GTG!

Depending on how many showed, it could get cozy. Which is cool -- a nice, intimate setting where we get to know each other and everyone's headstock.
<THWACK>
<SMACK>
<SNAP>
(Was that a Thunderbird headstock or someone's neck?)
<CRASH>
<THUD>
"Ow! Whose headstock just dove onto my foot?"
"Hey, Chuck, we warned you to wear steel toed boots, not sandals!" (Spoken by someone wearing dwarvish iron shoes)

I see our queen is posting model train pictures again so I'll fly my dork flag as well.
Lately I've been building balsa stick and tissue rubber powered free flight though I have a pretty heavy styrene addiction. Heres what's on the bench a Fokker DVIII and other projects in the wings, also some of my builds. The Monogram Hawker Typhoon (bottom pic.) is my oldest survivor I was maybe 13 when I built it.View attachment 4894958 View attachment 4894959 View attachment 4894960 View attachment 4894961 View attachment 4894962 View attachment 4894963 View attachment 4894964 View attachment 4894965 View attachment 4894966

Where´s bottom to give a thousand likes?

I think I'm feeling kinda pointy ? Will I get tossed from the club if I buy this ? I'm also a sucker for a natural finish. Suckhaaaa !!!!View attachment 4895067

Are you kidding. Explorers are cool. Even if they are the "ugly" sister to the gorgeous Thunderbird.:roflmao:

Nothing wrong with an Explorer-shaped bass!! Here is my 1982 Hamer Blitz Bass. Hands down one of my best sounding basses.
