THIEF!! LoL, j/k!
But yes, I too, have noticed this parallel dimension, in fact, I have actually witnessed its occurence! I was building my 1/48 scale Bradley, right? Well, the metal rod connectiong the left drive wheel to the right one, needed to be insert in the kit, right? Well, I set it down, IN THE CENTER OF MY DESK, left my hobby room, came back a minute later, and IT WAS GONE! I saw the last little bit of get devoured by the parallel dimension, just out of the corner of my eye! The sight of that dimension, IT WAS BEAUTIFUL! Like, an emptiness beyond all emptiness, a peaceful, serene, nothing…
I wasn’t elated for long, though! The portal sealed right back up the moment I tried to reach through it and retrieve my drive wheel rod! So, I ended up making my rod out of a straightened paper clip, cut to size. My rod has not come back, and is probably floating in all that nothingness that is… THE BEERMODEL TriANKLE…
It seems this phenomenom is happening all over the WORLD! Maybe someone should contact the U.N.?[:0]
Just glitches in the Matrix, thats all…
AHA! Mystery solved!
The other end of the wormhole is in Michealvk’s bedroom closet!

I think there may be a little tiny lady on the other side saying " all small parts step into the light , the light is your friend".
believe it or not , I actually saved a part last week. It was a complete miracle! I was sitting on my Laz Eboy checking out the new 1/350 B-25 set I bought, when low and behold, a clear nose piece (the tiniest part of the kit) decided to journey into the bottomless pit in the back of my chair. After pulling out old Froot Loops and Coco Pebbels, I finally somehow snagged it with my fingers.So, whoever is collecting these small parts on the other side, your now short one B-25 nose canopy :)~
Yah, Guys I hear it.
I dont know how many times I set a tool down - RIGHT BESIDE ME - went to reach for it and … gone.
Friggin Gremlins. Where’s my SKS? [:D]
Geesh I’ve looked in this void but there must be a parralel universe…because I have misplaced a few model kits!!!

Maybe you should check the fridge!!! If there are empty beer cans in the store cupboard you know what happened.
Any chance that any of you guys to have seen my P-47 tail wheel?
I had just put it on the dispaly box when it snapped never to be seen again…the box was totally closed apart from the top. the bird just gently been put in place…scary…
OK, you guys have all got me paranoid now.[:0] I’m starting to think their is a conspearicy going on against modelers worldwide. Probibly to replace simularly lost parts in another dimension. [;)]
Sometimes I wonder what is weirder. The fact that the parts disappear even though I never got up from the table.[:(!] or the places at the other end of the wormhole. One time I found the aft deck of a ship model in my FREEZER![:0] Mostly they don’t come back at all. Let’s see, Models, Beer, warm feet…and they say there is no heaven.[^]
I wonder if Rod Serling was a model builder who is now jealous that he didn’t live long enough to see all the improvements of the past couple of decades and is now collecting models one part at a time from a dimension not of sight or sound but of mind…[?]
So there I was, having just read these postings, crawling on the floor with flashlight in hand, looking for that shadow across the floor that just might resemble the cockpit seat of my Do17Z.
Does the resident spider have it already cocooned for dinner? nope.
Am I stepping or kneeling on it? Feeling no pain.
I KNOW it went THAT way when I last saw it.!!
Where did I find it??
Check your six. Yep, there he is.
(The really embarrasing point was that it took me even longer to find the cockpit floor to glue it onto, which of course, by then, I was sitting on)
Dammit… Its happened to me too now… Can any of you guys check your wardrobes for a 1:144 F-117 canopy? The Revell one…
Oddly, I rarely have that problem with model parts, but when I was working at the plant nursery, my garden shears would be forever disappearing into oblivion! Or the hammer. Or the watering wand. Or the. . .
Now there is the related matter of sharp little pieces of wire disappearing into the other dimension, only to reappear in this world right under my bare foot!
I have it on good authority (my wife) that the Bermuda Triangle has an adjuct site located just under my workbench. Any part that strays from the bench winds up at your house. If you guys find the left main gear for my Academy B-17G, let it go to the light!
Stay Away from the Light![}:)]
You’re not imagining it. The entrance to the wormhole is unstable and its location
fluctuates frequently. Objects sometimes take hours or even days to travel through
the wormhole to the mirror universe. On rare occasions they will even return, but as
was noted, you must have already purchased or scratchbuilt a replacement.
The gods of the dimension were nice to me this morning I had a little piece of my ouragan forgotten on the assembly box after i had airbrushed them (last week). Apparently I thought it was well gone untill I tore apart the box for the bin…here it was hidden in the corner…wonder why i did not see it before!!!
i think they are using my house as supply depot. like a month ago i found an American 1:35 arm, apparently from dragon. its odd because i’ve never owned a dragon american figure.
I have something similar to this. I call it a ‘transmogrifier’ It involves dropping a part into the wormhole only for it to turn up in a completely different place and in a different shape. Really good for creating lots of different detail bits.
