  1. Nothing. We had one of the warmest years on record this year.
  2. Supposed to reach freezing Temps here in Palm Springs tonight. Snow came halfway down the snow Jacinto mountains on the palm Springs side, which is crazy. We never see freezing Temps here. Mid 40s is pretty low for this area.
  3. I think Gunmetal wheels would really set this thing off. That paint is very nice.
  4. just start the same type of thread in the workbench section. "My uncompleted builds of 2014"
  5. It took you two years to get an SD card? The cheap SD cards are useless, you should stick with the brand name ones from a reputable store. The the 32 and 64GB ones are constantly on sale. I picked up a 32GB Ultra Plus for $24 at best buy twice this year. You can order them online too. Samsung brand is good too.
  6. The F-150 is the most American, domestic brand vehicle. More of it is made and assembled here than any other domestic brand.
  7. Does anyone here have an idea of what the molds cost to make and obtain? If you do, then you understand why the molds and everything else are made overseas. Molds are incredibly expensive.
  8. Kevins not a bad guy. Whatever happened that affected his business is unfortunate. From he small amount I'm out its not worth the effort for me to chase. If you have issues communicating just keep emailing him. In the end I believe he will come through but I'm over it at this point
  9. I used to order from Strada almost exclusively. Without a doubt, Strada has gone downhill. i used to get stuff within a couple of weeks, Kevin would answer emails, etc. Now I'm at least 6 months in from my last order with no communication. It took him weeks to answer my last email several months ago.. I've abandoned any hope that I'll have my order completed. when you make your own custom products, i can understand that it might take a while, but Strada is a distributor. If the manufacturer doesn't have something or it's on back order, send a freakin email to let people know.
  10. I think they just barely released them. i haven't tried them, but I have used a good amount of HD stuff and for the most part it's flawless. Some of the things they make don't work that well or are very difficult to get right. I would imagine it would take some skill to get those chrome window and fender trim to look just right without having the edges sticking out. They do make quality stuff though, i wouldn't hesitate to buy them if you were interested.
  11. I have a different system designed for filling chips in granite. It's about $80, but has 5 syringes of glue and some polish. It gets hard within a minute or so. the kit includes the UV light for curing. So far it works great but i haven't tried it on models.
  12. Clearly you should start your own model company
  13. Spaghetti with Parmesan cheese on top in the microwave. Smells terrible, tastes delicious. texture wise, mushrooms. Taste, olive and mushrooms are not in my food vocabulary.
  14. He's 12, give the kid a break. If you're trading with a 12 year old and expect it to go smooth, that's on you. It sounds like he's trying to get some stuff worked out. There definitely should be some age guidelines though, to protect both parties.
  15. for me, the one car that comes to mind is a BOSS 429 with the blackest black possible. Corvettes, white with black wheels. ferraris, obviously red, but a 328 in Azuro Blue looks killer http://www.carpictures.com/vehicle/05FE0025105240/Ferrari-328-GTS-blue-1989
  16. we need a new Oline before a running back. Bush is a huge threat in the open field, but he's not been a good back this season. Riddick is doing well and Bell has a ton of potential. Hopefully we keep Suh, but we'd have to overpay and I think letting him go would be smart in the long term. Raiola needs to get the hell out. He's a jerk and at the end of his career. An improved O line would be the biggest difference at this point. Give Stafford some time to throw and it will be a whole new team.
  17. I'm a lifelong Detroit fan from Southern California. I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but thank God for our defense. We just took back the division, thanks to buffalo. Stafford hasnt thrown a pick in 3 games which is nice. If our offense can get their stuff together, we might be able to make it all the way.
  18. It depends on who's buying. It's not an unreasonable price for a commissioned, professional build. When you're good at something you should get paid for it.
  19. Google Chrome and Firefox are free. I use both.
  20. you could probably chop up a body into panels and recast in clear resin, like the windshield material. do it in panels so you can sand and polish everything easier.
  21. 1. Highlight text 2. Press control + C at the same time 3. go to where you want to paste 4. Press Control + V at the same time. It's the easiest thing you can do on a computer
  22. This is pretty cool. They used these cars to show off at the World's Fair http://imgur.com/a/QOn75
  23. The fine stuff dries so smooth it has a sheen to it. I accidentally bought the regular. It's great but when compared to the fine there is a difference
  24. the Grand Sport kit parts are actually pretty large compared to other kits. They should work for a BB easily.
