I just saw the show yesterday where he was putting the finishing touches on the real one. Apparently the kit comes with a scale guitar too. B)

I had this model many years ago, a friend gave it to me but the body was broken, not sure what happened to it, but I got this one off eBay, the box is a little faded, didn't know they were so hard to find, the seller wanted near on £40 for it, I offered £20 and got it .....

A 7.5hp rotary phase converter, so I can convert my residential single-phase power to 3-phase for running machine tools. It's overkill for what I have now (Bridgeport mill, South Bend 7" shaper, & South Bend 8" "Junior" lathe, but I may replace the South Bend stuff with bigger tools one day, and I also want a nice 3-phase grinder.

No pics for the moment. I just ordered it over the phone. I can post a pic later tonight when I get home, and more when it arrives. I'm really happy abouy finally getting one of these. I've had the big machine tools for a while but couldn't use them. I have Sherline tools, but it's very easy to run out of room on them, especially when "stacking" accessories on the mill for making big parts like 1/8 scale engines.

:-D

Not much to look at but I am really excited about it.

I got a couple of cedar wood pieces from cigar boxes at a tobacco store. I plan on using them for paneling on a woody or planks for truck beds. Best part is they were free.

That is a great idea Benjamin. I'll have to look into getting some of that wood.

 

Thanks for sharing the idea.

I have the Cabriolet, along with a few other kits from the Enthusiast Series.  Nice models, just wish Fujimi had been a bit more enthusiastic with the instructions.  All those extra pieces and parts (compared to the 30-50 part standard Fujimi curbside) and a rather bland and underwhelming set of diagrams that aren't any different from kit they've done.

I know what you mean, I had parts in the kit that the instructions didn't mention, I grabbed the instructions from the Turbo kit I have, and they show the parts that the Cabriolet instructions ommited ..... also the side repeaters needed to be 21mm from the bottom of the sill and 3mm from the front of the door shut line, no mention of this in the Cabriolet kit, but clearly shows a diagram in the Turbo kit ....
