  1. Some how I misplaced my Dremel (Sears version) that I have had over 20yrs. Were I worked we would go through about 2 a year do to miss use, mostly over tightening the chuck. I always replace the chuck with a keyless chuck. I bought a HB cordless and it would not even charge. Returned it and picked up a corded one. The keyless chuck has different threads so it won't fit. The adapters I have different shanks sizes won't fit either. Wish I had my Dremel back.
  2. I already have the Revell lid with the louvers I want. It would be a lot more work to louver a flat lid than to take a little bend out of it.
  3. I have a AMT trunk lid. I want one with louvers
  4. I am trying to flatten out this Revell trunk lid to use on a AMT 32. I have tried putting it in these clip clamps and heating it up with a hair dryer and then letting it cool down. I have done this several times but it doesn't seem to be flattening out any. I don't want to apply to much heat and over flatten or warp it. Anybody have any better methods of doing this ? thanks Jon

  12. This one was built for a NNL Northwest tomorrow with the challenge of a Steve Stanford design.
  13. his one was going to be another Milner Coupe by my thoughts went side ways and I did it a bit more on the drag race side. I may have went a bit wide on the slicks. Named it "Gold Rush"
  14. This one was built for a contest in November with the theme "Black and White" Revell 5 window Autoair Pearl Black and Craetex Pearl White.
  15. First models I have completed in over 30 years. I know there are flaws but I build them as a learning experience. Open to any suggestions given. Thanks for lookin
  16. Lindberg made one but it was back in 1963 so I doubt that I would be able to find one for a price that I am willing to pay
  17. How is the Revell ? I just finished two of the Revell 5 windows and liked them a lot. Is the 3 window about the same?
  18. Just finished 3 32 5-windows and was thinking about doing a 3-window What kits are better than others ? Thanks

  22. Welcome from another modeler from the Great Northwet I have a facebook page (link at the bottom) where some of us get together and exchange info. It's kind of slow right now but check it out
