When I decided my collection gave more troubles than fun, I stored
everything in plastic boxes and stashed on a room at my mother's house.
Some years later...ta-daaa! :D Happiness forever! :D

Hi Seth,
I'm sorry to see anyone leave the list or the hobby for any reason, but
especially because of comments made on the list.
I strongly agree with Rob. Hang on to some of your favorite toys. You
never know when you might want to play with them again. I have a lot of
regrets from letting go a lot of equipment that I might never find again.

machines. To my dismay, it

It's that attention to quality and customer satisfaction that is so lacking today.
