Doesnt it just annoy the crud outta you?

I was re scribing some panels and chrome bits on my Chevy Impala with a nice pointy scalpal blade tonight in my armchair watching Joanna lumley talking about Elvis and suddenly the blade dropped out of my grasp and disappeared, I'm blowed if I can find it, my wife had a look too. I've searched between here and Pluto and still can't find it, I reckon Donald duck has scarpered off with it!

I lose a small part of almost every kit I have built. It is there and firmly in the grip of the tweezers. Then ping it heads off into some part of the room and never to be seen again. There are times when a loco on my layout goes off the track or stalls and there is a small bit of plastic on the line ...which kit did it come from will never be known.

You probably have enough 'pinged off ' bits to built a new model or two! Might be a good idea for a future group build!
