Mine happened right after a move to a new home. It had a beautiful space for model building with a window near the bench for light and ventilation. I had been working on a scratch built T.A.M. and was 75% done. Oh the precautions I took during the move, and success was mine. Finally getting to work in my new area I opened the window, laid out the T.A.M., and began. Went to eat lunch as the sun slowly slid west over the open window to beat down on all that white plastic. After and hour and a half I returned to a melted twisted mess of a project.

Motto: Sunlight and plastic do not mix.
