Default RE: How to keep the interior organized...

Jeff, I live in columbia SC...Danville is way up ouside of Greenwood, so really not just up the next block....and when you work at night, and weekends, makes it even worse.

Practice is nice, if you know from move #1 what you are practicing. Like I tell my son when he comes over to straighten up my computer and tells me he showed me a couple months ago....OK, I'll strip down a piccolo or bassoon and show you how to repad it and reassemble and adjust it...or tie on a new bagpipe bag and seal it..then tune the reeds... next month, you come over and do it.

What a lot of us need is someone with RC savvy to have us do (a) task(s) and supervise, then show us maybe, a better (or safer) way to do it. Simple thing like swapping out motors....very easy (what I'm told) once you have done it a time or two, replacing a board and getting all the wires in the right place, moving a MG LED without busting it up and have it work once it's in place. I feel good at being able to move the antenna on my Pz IIIs and tigers to the correct spot and have them work, but that's very, very basic and not much can go wrong. Moving the Pershing ant to the turret is a bit more complicated and have left the last two where they are.
