I meant it didn't really matter what we classified Pluto as because definitions will change. I mean ultimately everything comes to a end , but even in the "short" term (300 - 600 years) we could develope a new paradigm of classification that could not include planets. I mean to some people I guess it matters that Pluto is not a planet but I don't think it really matters.
You can immensly shave off model building time by employing a fine set of small scissors. They cut thru the plastics tabs faster then rocking the piece back and forth to break it off. And unlike a knife you don't have to saw it to cut thru the plastic. Scissors work especially well on the more dellicate pieces ie: Thin wing sections and small pieces. Also you can scan ahead in the instructions and arrange the multiple plastic sheets in a order to optimize your hunting for parts. Kind of like a strange manufacturing line or more closely related to a "manufacturing cell". Man I've been working for that wellhead company for too long.
