Models Inc.

I was at a shopping centre jalan2 when i saw a booth selling model kits out of wood. Seems interesting leh. When i was younger, i used to build model cars and aeroplanes and when i'm older, i only watch nude models. Haha!! So i guessed this would not be much of a difference.

There were many models to choose from. Got cars, aeroplanes and famous landmarks such as the San Francisco Bridge as well as Australia's Sydney Opera House. After browsing through the available models, i decided to choose the windmill.

Here's the model kit. Cost me 7 bucks. The glue need to purchase separately.

The contents of the model kit. Includes a small sandpaper to smooth out any rough edges (duh!). Dun expect the manual to be like the one by Ikea. There's no assembly illustration. The manual is a drawing and the individual parts are connected by joining identical numbers.

The 'floor' of the model. Dunno how many square feet.

Started to work from the ground up. Quite easy leh.. Just need to slot in the parts and gluing them when necessary.

U can see the roof is now in place. Luckily never rain while i was making this.

The base of the windmill. At this point of time, it's startin to get a little bit challenging..

The tower is now in place. Looks more like a chimney.

Eh, tired lah.. I watch MTV for a while k...

1 hour,

a cup of coffee

and 2 sticks of cigarettes later.....

Ok. Back to work. Been workin on this part for about half an hour. Dunno wat the hell it's supposed to be!

Though it may not be rocket science, still need some thinkin while doing dis. Hmm... looks like my windmill is taking shape.

Wats left of it. Piles of rubbish and sawdust!

Tada! My windmill finally finished! Nice or not?
