Hey folks, and Happy December 1st! Those of you who are either shopping for an r/c nut or that ARE an r/c nut looking to give cheap gift ideas to friends/family, you are in luck today as I’m about to dish! And I’m not going to be talking full on trucks or kits- I’m talking tools! The often neglected part of the [...]
Greetings all, and Happy 4th of July weekend to our US readers! I’m settling in for a long weekend of music, fireworks and some trigger time on my basher monsters. But before that? Some ramblin’.
