Very funny Hesh .. I always wonder when I open these ones up if someone will ever throw one of mine in there ... then this wow7-eyes !!!!!

Almost all those sets (not the blocks of hondo I am laying on, but a couple) are now either completed or in use in the shop. The mad rw set on my righthand is just about to go to the photographers place in about an hour .. I will post some of that one. The coco set just above it was used to create a big sister to the Guiding Light (not called the lighthouse!!) - a 25.5 to 26.75 multiscale on a 1/4 inch wider platform. Unfortunately I didnt get a chance to get pro shots of that one, but I still have some, need to edit those up too ...

thanks all for playing [:Y:] !!!
