WHAT’S ON THE BENCH
Stuart - CF-15 is almost done, just waiting until club night to pick up some 3d printed nozzles from a fellow club member.
Time to start thinking about what’s next. So many choices… The one-year challenge build of the Tamiya 1/350 Yamato needs some thought….

Geoff - I started (and finished!) the Horizon Models 1/72 Atlas Agena this week, and posted pics and comments on the show Facebook page. I received the white and black shuttle tile decal sets for the 1/144 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft project from Lake County Spaceport. Excellent quality and service! Just received the 747 decals from Drawdecal in Florida - they look very good! Also awaiting decals for the Martin Mars water bomber from Above and Below Decals - also in shipping purgatory.

Terry - Some progress on both the Regult and XP-47H. Also building some other items, getting things ready for painting, like a pair of Star Blazers Dreadnaughts I picked up at last Wonderfest.

WHAT WE ARE READING
Stuart - Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results by Shane Parrish
Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout by Cal Newport
Geoff - Same things I was reading last show - spending way too much time battling rabbits and deer in the garden! Mostly reading formulas for rabbit repellents!
Terry - Not a Scientist: How Politicians Mistake, Misrepresent and Utterly Mangle Science by Dave Levitan. I bought this new, but I am just reading it now. How to spot the BS politicians use to malign and mangle science. Also reading Volume 18 of Slime.
