Had to tell of a moving accident I just noticed. We moved to a new house a little over a year ago. The move wasn't a long-distance move, just across the city - the packing wasn't the best...

Finally after getting some of the initial projects done, I've finally gotten to setting up my modeling area. I went to pack-up my tools and things, to find a pile of rust. I had packed my things making sure the liquids I had were properly sealed etc., but not well enough apparently. I had a bottle of etching solution crack, with it leaking into my bin of tools, ie xacto knives, files, pliers, wire cutters etc... and now it is a neat pile of rust... Not a major setback, but nevertheless making it difficult to model. Oh well, I guess I'm just going to have to spend a little time getting new tools - I know what you are thinking, poor me, I know, I know I'll just have to do it!!!

Look on the bright side you now have some rust pigment to weather with.

That's a "Military" reply if ever I heard one!
