He’s no longer in the hobby and I believe has sold all his models now.

Confirmed. PTC was the last to go. He's doing well, and pursuing other interests.

He's a stronger man than I am.
How do you go from crazy into this hobby to dropping it like a rock?

That's a shame, always enjoyed his "red, white and black" repaints and as I remember he got himself a couple bull whips in Mammoet colors!!!

Yea I miss Bob as well, he was always there for you if a repaint was in order, of course he would steer you in the direction of Mammoet!

I've done one repaint and Bob supplied the decails. Of course he encouraged Mammoet! lol

Yes he was. After the Mammoet phase he got into the whips, which came about from the ren fairs he attended. During that he started blowing glass and then went on a big fitness programme and lost a lot of weight.

Wood working is something he’s always done and some of the furniture in his house was made by himself.

I think he now spends quite a bit of time with the church, which is something he hadn’t used to do. Been a while since I’ve seen him though but my favourite memory is when Zach, Jules, Bob and I went on a road trip to the DHS Diecast open day. It was the last time I went and was several years ago now.
