I know I haven't put out any woodworking or making videos in a bit... I have some life issues I am going through... I may do a video to explain a few things... however let's just say 2019, been a bit of tough year so far ...From my father dying at the beginning of the year, then our pet cat dying, the Ducati being knocked over and damaged, my mother in and out of the hospital with pneumonia, and then finally my sister fighting cancer... all the while I suffer from anxiety and depression as well as the winter blues. Now add in work and the daily grind, and to be honest, I am not really enjoying my job anymore... and seriously thinking of moving on, just not sure to what? Then to top it all off, on August 28th I came down with the flu which was borderline line influenza and I am now on the slow recovery from that.

Bio
Captain Maxwell Payne the III
Born 1830, much of Maxwell Payne’s private life history is a mystery and the only person who really knows this history is Maxwell Payne himself. It is unsure if Maxwell was born into money or not. There are times you would say yes, but then there are times he can be hard and rough around the edges. He is a man of mystery and he does not like to be questioned on his past.

One of my other hobbies is riding motorcycles, I don't know what it is other than freedom and the feel of the bike as you power on taking her through the back hill twisties. It is a feeling only a motorcyclist knows, and can't really explain it to a non-rider.

So making is not always creating something from nothing or making a cabinet from a plank of wood, it can be seeing various items and putting them together and making a new item. In this case, we bought some industrial-grade shelving units. This is not the cheapest option however it is a very simple idea and looks really good and gives a very industrial look.

Click on the TAGS above for a quick search and sort of my sets.
I like Lego I can not lie... and while I am not what they call a purist, meaning I only buy Lego and nothing else... Not all models I have are Lego. (I will say if they are are Lego or not. Click the "Non Lego Blocks" tag above). I also have not taken photo's of all my models and will put in an official image if I have not got a photo of my build. I will eventually take photo's of all my builds over time. Also I don't just collect the big black special official kits I also collect certain "City" and "Technic" and various other themed kits.
I do have one gripe the grinds my wheels though... Stop calling it "Legos", it is simply "Lego". Is it "Legos" or simply "Lego"? The Lego company, the mastermind behind this iconic toy, has a firm stance on this matter. They adamantly maintain that the correct plural form is "LEGO bricks" or "LEGO sets," treating "Lego" as an adjective rather than a noun.

The brick count does not count spare parts, 2nd hand Lego, small sets that can not be registered or non Lego sets.
Current sets to be made are;
