Greetings Topgun56: From The Laws of Modeling 101;
1. Every modeler's desk comes with a black hole beneath it, that swallows parts. Only on rare occassions does it see fit to spew one back at you.
a. Only the highly scratchbuilt parts or ones that have
no replacements will fall into this black hole.
b. the porbability of dropping a part is inversely
proportional to to the size of the part.
c. The closer the match of a part and the floor, the
greater the probability of dropping the part.
d. A dropped part will bounce to the most innaccessible
area of the room. (this also allows you to mark the
boundaries of your black hole.
(Note: A dropped X-acto knife will visit your foot before
obeying d.)
e. As soon as you quit looking for the missing part you will
probably step on it.
