Goodbye spray cans. You ain't gotta go home, but you can't stay here anymore.
You can keep the spray cans - just decant and you have pre thinned paint ready to spray. You can control how much comes out, now, and no more spray bombs.

I picked up a pair of real gems today from Mike at Hayes Hobby House, prepare to start drooling! :drool: :drool: :drool:Both are VINTAGE AMT '32 Fords, in a box design I've never seen before. The Vicky has the grille glued into the shell, and the 427 is mostly built. There's some damage from the tires on a few parts, but nothing major on this one...
Here's the '32 Roadster, it's got no parts glued together, but the grille shell and the hood have tire damage...I'm still happy I got 'em!
I have multiples of these myself.....They were Ford Motor Company give aways....
There is a 36 Roadster / Coupe and a 25 "T" in this group also....
Don't know of any others, but that doesn't mean there weren't any....
Enjoy...

Picked up a new sprue cutter, some #11 blades, needle file set, and these:
Dremel Drill Press

And the parts to make a airbrush spray booth. Just missing a on/off switch and a filter. I'll get those tomorrow and throw the booth together tomorrow morning and test it. Can't wait!

Let me know how you like the Dremel drill press. I've been eyeing one for a couple years now.

Went to Hobby Lobby and used my 40% off on a can of Ultra Gloss Clear coat and my wife used one on the Prismacolor black marker. She also spotted the other 8 cans of spray paint when walking by the clearance section. Got 2 cans of Fabric Grey, 2 cans of Camo Grey, 1 light sea grey, 1 Black cherry pearl, 1 Burgundy red and 1 Citrus yellow metallic......each can was marked down to 2.22!!!! lol On top of that she wants me to build another car for her using the Black cherry pearl, she wanted a 69 GTO so I won a kit from 1994 on Ebay for 16.00 shipped. Win win for me!! lol

The Chopper II (styrene cutter) I got off ebay arrived. It was a Chopper III instead. The seller will be paying me back and also paying for the return postage. I ordered a Chopper II from Al's Hobby in Elmhurst, IL.
