    Funny that I mentioned the river rat kit and then find an unbuilt complete kit at NNL east….

    Just got home from NNL east, my wallet is toast!

    The thing I like about the yoctosun is the depth of field, I tried optivisor, magnifying lamps etc., but these things don’t send me off the range, I can comfortably work with them on without getting discombobulated ( as in I’m holding something, then try to find my other hand within the magnified area, if that makes sense), and you can’t beat the price.

    Same kit,, different decals and will most likely be labeled as an adult collectible

    Go to Amazon and check out yoctosun, these things are the bomb, 5 lenses and a built in light. Game changer for me, and they are like $20. Comfortable and you can wear glasses while wearing them as well. Lens angle and light angle are adjustable, I love them.

    That should make a fantastic work space!

    Thanks for the heads up, hadn’t thought to refresh my ‘screen’

    Don’t have pics handy, but I’ve used those on AMT kits, Want to say I modified the back of the inner wheels to accept the brake drums from the AMT kit so I could use the metal axle.

    Yup, I built one as a kid as well, still think it’s a cool kit.

    This one is kind of elusive

    Pretty sure my wallet is going to melt at NNL east …..

    And the fickle finger of fate will quickly humble you in both hobbies ….

    There is also the fact that some of the older sheets of BMF are thicker and don’t stick as well, most of those were out around/during Covid .

    A bit of a late response, but the turquoise is model master tropical turquoise

    Looking good Jim, nice job!

    I’ve been using canopy glue , small dab on the glass, set mirror and let it dry. The canopy glue is tacky enough after a minute or so to keep mirror in place and dries clear

    You better take her out to a nice dinner or something, great score!

    Looking great! Makes me want to start another one of those kits.

    If they have the spare parts in stock, it’s pretty quick. I got a replacement hood for my ramp truck as soon as they had stock a available, and not too long ago I bought a replacement parts tree for the nova gasser due to my carpet monster eating a small part, I think that showed up in less than a week.
