hi all no this is not to relive a tv advert from years ago. but to ask has anyone (apart from myself ) built a gold winning show model,you know the the one all-singing all-dancing loks the mutts nuts. then take it out of the cabinet you've had in for a year to take a look at it up close for your next project, then a bit snaps off as you are taking it out and to your scream of NOOOOOOOOO . SMASH it looks like something from the falsie pocket on the floor well thats just want has happened not 10mins ago
so go on own up i can't be the only dumbass

oh yes ! it was only a bit of etch brass that came off but it stuck to my tweezers once too often , so it was a case of ( WHAM BAM ) , it may have been an expensive model but it shouldn't have tried to get the better of me , huh well it lost . funny how a bit of plastic can wind you up.
