  1. Past hour
  2. THIS!!! ^^^ I always put my name on things I do, because if I do something and it's wrong or breaks, I will figure out why on both accounts. I try and teach our new guys this, and they don't care, they don't understand it. 1000000000000000000000000x facts!!! Exactly! Too many go the easy route! I hear this adnauseum at work all the time, and I fire back with.. was it there sweat or blood that did this? And they go no, and I follow with.. why are they getting my money this will make. The uppers shut up then because they know I will grill them to the ground.
  3. BMW Z3 M Coupe. A BMW SUV cutting in and out of traffic. The license plate said MEEFRST. Of course....
  4. This one is stunning! Eye candy every time I see it!
  5. This is the truck I recently showed in the WIP forum. The 1982 era Monogram snap-tite roots of the kit made it a surprisingly uncomplicated and straightforward build. License plates and fuel tax tabs are attached along with vintage style "Northwest Trucking" door logos, I added a few accessories, made it a single stack, and even added some stainless steel chains wrapped around the tail end of the frame.
  6. After some time in the freezer I was able to get some of the parts apart. There was a little damage, but nothing I can't handle. I glued the rear axle back together and used some evergreen tubing to add some support. I glued the roof and was able to find the missing chuck. The kit comes with an overhead console, so that will add some support. More next time.
  7. All of your Chryslers are cool. šŸ‘. I wish they would come out with the 68 Newport but I've never seen one. Closest thing is the 300.
  8. thanks everyone for the comments & likes! Time to "put it under glass"
  9. Kobalt pole saw. So far…so good.
  10. Looks great. Those are some small fixings!!
  11. The old guys that gave a sh.t made things to last because their name was on it. Now it’s just greed. I’m trying to teach this guy about (your name is on the repair) but some people do not care. I’m disgusted with the current situation.
  12. Cragers are from the AMT Baldwin Motion Camaro and the slicks are from the Revell Hemi Dart I believe (not sure though now).
  13. "Work it like a pro" is a slogan on the PB Blaster cans.
  14. Haha yep tried to make them look a little used and rusty.
  15. I remember He was. In Thema and Louise…
  16. im surprised on how much lol
  17. I appreciate the interest in the 35 Ford fellows. If and when I decide to print more I'll open a new thread.
  18. When you move. You will be amazed how much stuff you own"….
  19. yes im a master technician 36 years and 15 years as a bus and truck tech
  20. was you a machic?
  21. A washing machine. Doing a "self clean". Seems kinda pointless to me. And then of course the stupid bell/whistle fails and you have to pay to have it fixed. Just another example of today's obsession with unnecessarily complex and silly "features". Is this thing made by today's GM (sorry Mary...gm)? ---------------------------------------------------------------- Congrats on finding your part though.
  22. I have gone ahead and placed two orders on Ebay, which should be delivered during the back end of next week . . . The first order is comprised of 8 lamps that are intended for model railway use. These lamps are 3 volt and include resistors for 12V use, with a generous length of wiring. The second order is comprised of 10 battery holders with switches, that will each hold a CR2032 coin cell battery of 3V . . . These battery holders also have a generous amount of wiring included. This arrangement of lighting should allow me to have each of the eight rooms lit individually, so switched on or off for each room. The lamps can be mounted on the underside of the foam board ceiling panel, while the wiring will be concealed on the top side of the ceiling panel, and the battery holders / switches can be located outside the bungalow provided the length of wiring allows this . . . For ease of use, I can label each switch to indicate which room it corresponds to. The first of the following photos shows the living room with one of my existing lighting kits set up. I think the ones that are on order should be more effective. David
  23. A very hot day almost dangerous to be doing yard work…
