A work of art, and your photos make it perfect!

Very nice! Nice surprise hiding under the hood

Very nice, and the weathering is spot on. Your photos show it off perfectly too.

This is so cool. Great job. I actually know some someone that built a similar 1:1 (had a hydro-seeder on his) to shoot grass seed/mix on to soft land. Your build reminds me of that truck. I love it!

Outstanding build of this kit !

Very Nice! Some tedious (and great) work with those decals!

Wow! Looks fantastic!

Another one that I'll be keeping an eye on. Nice crisp decal sheet.

Wow. This is some scratch building. Very nice!

Thanks guys, from all your input it sounds like I'm on the right the right path. I'm using solid wire (sm. paper clip wire) and do use liquid glue for the initial assembly, let it dry (at least overnight). Then after some clean-up work I use Super Glue, but I'm going to give the gel a shot. Interesting point about the paint being a potential issue to soften things up (didn't think about that). I'll have to make sure I only paint these parts w/ water based paint only (as a precaution). Again - thanks!

I have a pair of front tubular spindles I recently built out of Evergreen. I used small wires within the tubes at joints and used Super Glue to assemble the parts. Once everything was dry, I used a small amount (toothpicked in) additional Super Glue on top of the joints to fill in any small gaps and hopefully provide additional strength. I was wondering if anyone has any other ideas or suggestions, on something better? thoughts on another product that would leave a smoother surface and add rigidity? Has anyone worked with thinning down any epoxy glues?

Looks great to me. I really like it!

Nice clean work, looks really good! Thumbs up!

Very nice! Would make a real nice 1:1 conversion too!

Nice. Love the ghost flames!
