Model Building Toolbox Talk #11: Using a Flashlight Around Your Work Area

Excuse the lame and awkward introduction from Brett!  This week Todd brings a flashlight to the toolbox talk and discusses how he uses one around his work area in the dark crevices and corners to find parts dropped around the workbench. Here's the scenario... You drop that little window or chimney, or even (gasp) a piece of cut-to-fit acetate. You know it hit the floor but you either have a dark floor or it's like Brett's, on a basement concrete floor. You look for a minute or two, frustrated and pissed off you now have lost yet another part to the abyss that is the dark area under and around your workbench. And there's no way in hell you're reaching your hand back in the corner with that unsightly cobweb!  Now it's time time to grab that flashlight you have kept on your workbench specifically for this situation and go hunting for that lost part. but during your search and rescue mission you discover 3 or 5 or even a dozen (who knows how long it's been since you cleaned under your workbench) other parts that you forgot you even dropped last year or even longer ago! This is something that WE ALL most likely do and a flashlight can certainly help find those pesky lost forever parts. Like our show and want to support us?
