  1. thanks guys Tom, good looking pair of trucks!
  2. looking good, like the turquoise color!
  3. thank you, much appreciated
  4. JT, when are we going to see a whole fleet photo? would love to see your 'truck stop'
  5. looking good, really like how your seat came out, and the rust looks terrific.
  6. been working on this for a few weeks now, root beer and silver with a brown and silver interior, thanks for looking.
  7. Greg, they are out there, but kind of pricey. the ones I bought were reasonable, every now and again you can find a deal. keep looking, you'll find one.
  8. you never fail to amaze! incredible build!
  9. that's looking really good! love the snow picture
  10. Greg, nice haul! I got all this stuff last sunday,
  11. funny, can't picture life without the cat now. she's in my lap 'idling' now [when she purs it sounds like she is at an idle, haha]
  12. we had 2 dogs [super and sport] for a bit over 10 years, they were mutts, and were brothers, got them as pups. after they died, I was rather crushed, as they were family and told the wife I didn't want any more pets. so about 2 years later, my wifes grandmother passes away, and at the wake, my wife tells her aunt that she will be over the following week to get the cat, then looks at me and says 'oh, I forgot to tell you.....' so, the cat comes home, and is not happy! camps out under my recliner, and won't come out. after about 2 days, she starts coming out and hanging around the side of the chair within arms reach. so I start to pet her, and slowly, she came around to her new environment. she is now mostly glued to me [when she feels like dealing with humans], and follows me around the house, and really likes to curl up in my lap, especially when I am trying to type on this thing, lol. she's a real piece of work
  13. 22 years here, and have learned one important thing, if momma ain't happy, nobody's happy
  14. I find if the surface isn't 'rough' enough and I don't let it dry fully, it chips off. I have been using Tamiya white putty.otherwise, it works fine.
  15. nicely done, that looks fantastic!
  16. your build looks great, love the paint choice. I just finished the kit you have listed above, I thought it was a great kit, only issues [as mentioned in my build thread by others] were the hood hinges, and the door hinges, but no big deal. it builds up nice.
  17. glad to see this finished, stunning job, absolutely stunning!
  18. looks great in black, nice job!
  19. Cato, it has 3 filters. 2 lower, and a 'sheet' that goes on top. the lowest one I have not touched, the second filter I have vacuumed the debris/dust out of twice, and the top filter 'sheet' I usually change when it gets covered in over spray, or acts like it's impeding airflow thru it. this is why I suggest buying the extra roll of 'top sheet' filter paper, as that you will go thru rather quickly.
  20. I use the heck out of it... I also should mention, it's metal, not flimsy pressed card board, and the whole top hood is removeable.
  21. i have an artograph 1530, absolutely love it!! i spray enamel, lacquer, walmart spray bombs, rustoleum etc in it. it's a great size, i can fit tractor trailer sides in it etc.. if you keep the filters clean, you almost don't have to vent it outside, lacquer smells a bit, but not too bad. i highly recommend it. if you do get one, buy the extra roll of top 'sheets', you'll be glad ya did.
  22. looks great JT. love the trailer as well, way to update it. say it ain't so.......you ran out of orange paint???
  23. good lookin rig!
