LOL, many of us have done something similar...!

My favourite party trick is to do an absolutely perfect shiny solder joint only to see the heatshrink intended to cover the joint still laying on the bench.  The re-joining is always a dogs breakfast by comparison to the original.

Have done this too many times to be funny anymore.

The trick with solder joint must be "Galactic Constant"

Hi Lazy,

That looks great. Is that ply - lasercut? You have an extreme emotional pain threshold building that scale. I envy you workshop - looks spacious and organised. Here is a crazy idea - looking at the scale of your build and the facilities available to you, why dont you tackle a Rutan long-ez - www.ez.org

A friend built himself one a few years ago. Took me for a flip after it was given the green light by the aviation guys and what a blast. It is fairly simple and chellenging enough to keep you interested - I know you have a long relationship with flying wings - the long ez might be the next step. You can call her the long-lazy. They even fit turbines on them and go pilon racing.....

That's going to be an amazing crash.
