Stickers!
🕑 Added 2022-07-10 18:00:26 +0000 UTCHey Patrons! Better late than never, right? I'm back from my channel logistics trip and was able to get the stickers out that were owed to all you new Rockstar Patrons who joined in June.
Since my entire life is literally in boxes and crates at the moment, I don't have a direct book recommendation for you this month. However I have a virtual recommendation of sorts. One of you recently taught me about Cherry Hill, an award-winning model engineer who also happens to be a woman. Her work is absolutely incredible and there's a book about her called Cherry's Model Engines. The book is possibly out of print (hence being rather expensive everywhere that I have looked), so I haven't read it myself yet. I will be on the lookout for it though, because it looks amazing.
More information about Cherry can be found here:

As always, thanks so much for your support, everyone. You Patrons literally put food in my mouth and a roof over my head, and for that I will be eternally grateful.

Ah, I always forget who knows what among the Patrons. I've been documenting this in the Lens videos (5$+ level), but I am in the midst of a cross-continental shop move (~2500 km). What you are seeing on the channel now are pre-prepared videos (which you will continue to see for a few more weeks yet).

OK, the link to the article about Miss New Jersey (Cherry Hill - get it?) goes in the "must read" folder - thanks. Now then ... boxes? Crates? Anythng you care to share with we, the faithful?
