Actually, I just realized Odds & Ends is FineScaleModeler's off-topic forum name. We should probably chose something else.



My apologies on this as I had no idea.

How about the Lodge? That's where we are supposed to tell lies and share stories isn't it?

A different twist came to me, how about the Mess Haul? It is certainly a mess in here, and we're all hauling around a lot of junk.

Sprue Crew might be a good name for posters here.

The Forum Formerly Known As The Junk Drawer

I kid.
The Water Cooler and the Open Mess both have a ring to them...

In light of Shaun's pick - The Junk Drawer that has changed names

or

The Drawer of Junk

or

The forum of changing names

or

Hot Air Saloon

or

The forum for exchanging rants and raves or whatever you think of, as long as it is clean and devoid of political or religious content

ok I'll stop while I still can....

I'll throw out a couple....

The Scrap Heap

The Corner Bar
or
The Corner Tavern

Both places where the "stuff" flys

In keeping with a more English sounding name for a tavern....

The Track and Sprocket

Hmmm...lots of alcohol references there..and from someone that doesn't drink!

Fiddler's Green

Dunno how many non-US tankers would recognize that, but for some background, see http://sniff.numachi.com/pages/tiFIDGREN2;ttFIDGREN2.html
