Thanks for the heads up. This has been the go to for many people on here.

People have also talked of using 2 liter bottles for the plastic. If you dont drink soda get the cheapest on sale. May be cheaper than clear sheets.

Thank you for the great answer on how to get ride of the edges from printing parts because of how the layers work. At no point has anyone on this and other threads called the setting or referred to the setting by striations. I am not sure why anyone would call them that. My first contact with 3d printed parts was in 1997 or 98. They were called layers then also.

You better have a wet suit. LOL

Get well soon Steve. Prayers for you and your family.

Good luck Bill. Auto payments suck for this reason. They are like a time share.

Thats a long drive for a plastic windshield. Way to go Ace.

Here in the Toledo OH area there are some swap meets coming up within 2 hours. Not sure of your location. one this weekend in Akron and one the next weekend just north of Detroit. Added . So you could check for other lost parts .

Welcome to the forum. Trains are fun like cars. When it comes to the painting you can learn a lot from here in the tips section. If you decide to build a car just remember you dont have to paint the first few you build.

I have a Starrett 12 ×18 pink granite surface plate. When one of the older guys retired at work I bought it from him. I was going to use it at work but we have several large plates to use. Not only that another guy here bought a 24 x 36 plate that I can use. It was mentioned about going to a counter top place. Not a bad idea if you have one in the area. They may charge you but I believe it will be cheaper than buying a small head stone.

I just checked MSC and we can still purchase the scribes You will want the one with the 1/4 handle..i

The general brand pencil style scriber has the 1/8 collet size also. The one with the magnet on one end. I have ground broken carbide tools to a point to use in it. (.020 to .0625 diameter end mills break if you push them to hard. So I have a few of these.) You can also use a round burr like a scrapper in these. STARRET brand tools are great Just remember that they sell a larger scribe with a .187 diameter collet also. Sorry this is a Lufkin brand and not a starrett. Picture below, a standard old Exacto knife for size, general scribe with burr inserted, Starrett and the Lufkin.

If you dont get a responce here try to send Jimmy Flintstone a message. He might just sell you the hood.

I believe this is 40% off week at hobby lobby if you are close to one anyway. (Not sure how ordering from them works for the discount week.) The 67 Prostreet Chevelle jas nice tires and wheels and normaly in stock. Has a big block Chevy if thay is what you want. But Inalso agree with the bed printed engines from texas 3d customs or iceman collections. They both have awesome selection and products are top notch.

Printing in color. Wow that is a game changer.

Waiting 0n that Blazer snap kit. I already have my plow for the front. Just need to paint the body silver with a brush like my friends was.

Welcome aboard.

Welcome aboard young man. I agree with you start back with simple projects.

Welcome to the forum.

Wow that is a beautiful car. This was shown at Good guys in 2020. Maybe the plastic model was part of the influence for that masterpiece.

Novas have a reputation of the rear leaf springs breaking or sagging so they tend to dog track. Very very common. Even my brothers low millage 72 had this problem after awhile.

The biggest problem with this topic is even some of the facts may be taken as political. My stash is large enough anyway.

Antenna only for me. 1994 was the first acess I had to cable. It was great for the first decade had a dish for a few years also. Still like the Antenna better.

One thing I have noticed about Lottery winners that go broke. They don't look past today with spending. Just like professional athletes, they forget the money runs out. Even 750 million after taxes. Now a nice injection mold shop to cut new tools ran in my home country ( yours may be different) is a good thought.

Tell no one except the accountant and lawyer that sets up the accounts and trusts for me and my family. After that there would be some life changes for me.
