Weekend project, um, yeah, after you buy all the extra parts, like that
cable set....

Around '08, I bought an HO scale model steam locomotive kit, maybe 35
years old, "partly assembled". Then I spent at least half again as much
buying the missing parts. Then I started work.... I did finish it,
eventually, and it looks *marvelous*.

I've also said that I had *way* more "fun" (for certain values of "fun")
than I'd planned on. I also say "I've done that, I don't *EVER* have to do
it again".

        mark, remembering too many times carefully shaking the rug, and
finding
                the marker "jewels" (too small for a tweezers) in the
dust....
