Sound good to me then. I've come to the unfortunate conclusion that I'm going to be stuck in this house long enough to finish my shelf layout.

I think that falls under "layout work", Stephen, as seen below:

There'd also be no special skills required - do the project(s) you want to do and are capable of doing. We want to help you get started or simply get you off your duff and doing something....

Well I'm happy to say my project is picked out , sitting on the work bench and waiting for " Gentlemen start yer engines " .
To err is human, to blame it on somebody else shows management potential.

So looks like voting has slowed down but if we had 17 participants I still think it would be a good challenge. Any thoughts?

Yeah, seventeen should be enough to merit a new Challenge, but I've just now posted a mention of it in the Upper Berth. Perhaps that will entice a few more.

I wasn't going to jump in but I have an old Mainline wood boxcar kit I have been putting off finishing, this just might get it done. Let me know when the start is.

I vote for "Do Something". I have not done enough on my layouts in the last year to say that I have even worked on them.I am hoping next year will be a lot more productive.
