So here is a challenge/contest for all members. Long has this forum been called the Junk Drawer. I think it's time for a new name!

Come up with a new name for the Junk Drawer and post your ideas here. The winner gets... their name chosen!

Be creative! Your modelers I know you can do that. :-)

Cheers,
Jim

I vote for Steve's suggestion. O&E or Odds & Ends.

I personally like Spares Box, but O&E is also pretty good.

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

My second recommendation is The Bone Yard. A bone yard is a place where old equipment is picked apart. My third recommendation is the Mess Hall.

How about

The Open Mess

It's a military term and the multiple meanings of the words kind of lend themselves to the Junk Drawer vibe.
