is a custom model even possible

[Joel T]

Hi everyone,

I'm new here and have zero clues as to how to create a model with methods that can be overridden by each instance . i.e Each instance will provide its own methods that will be called when a certain event is triggered.

Hey Joel,

An instance of a model typically represents one row in the database. It
is a bit unusual to have different methods per row(model instance).
Where will you store the code for these instance-specific methods? In
the database?

Perhaps, you should ask a more general question? Maybe this "unique
methods per model instance" isn't the best way to solve your problem.
