Kaci, do you sleep? lol. I think I read you recently retired, I did the same thing about 12 years ago when I retired. I’m still building today, although not as many , age tends to creep up on you. it’s a wonderful feeling knowing you can enjoy your hobby without work getting in the way. Model on my friend!!

Mines 50 miles away, last time I was there I bought two cases

Like I said before Kaci, time to head on over to IKEA , 🤪🤪

Kaci, you seem to have a real knack for painting, I’m assuming you use Tamiya paint. In my book as far as rattle can paint goes, it’s second to none

Great job, I love the blue, it’s my favorite color, my build collection has a very disproportionate amount of various blues , my granddaughter always says when I start a new build, “ hey Papa is this one gonna be blue “?

Wow, and the color is great!

I looked on Amazon and found this. It appears to be cotton with a paper backing that peels off after printing. You guys got my wheels turning again. I will be looking into this idea. I’m always looking for something different to do with seats and door panels to make them look more realistic

That Red Mustang is beautiful

I’ve been around here for about 11 years, you guys have done a fantastic job providing this great source of abundant information for our wonderful hobby.l know it takes a lot of effort to make it function properly. I’m also in favor of some type of pay feature . I also like the idea of a Marketplace. I’m sure any changes you make will be met with some criticism but that’s to be expected.

Like Dave said , IKEA has pretty good cases, I have seven of them 🤪, they’re about $85 , but only have three shelves. I have my local hardware store cut three extra shelves at about $7 each. I make my own brackets from thumb screws. So for a little over $100 I get a pretty decent case that will hold about 18 models. Works for me.

Great build, I especially like the pinstripes

Build, build , build. That’s what kits were designed for IMHO

Now that’s kool. Very creative

Very nice, luv me some MoPars 😎

WOW, some absolutely beautiful cars here, thanks for sharing!

I just love seeing this kinda stuff,from days gone by

I love seeing these preserved gems from the early days , thanks for sharing

Peter , give Jerry a break, he was just asking a question, I don’t think your comment was necessary

79 Jeep pick up looks interesting

Wow beautiful build. I love the color

Steve, could I respectfully ask about the wire you used in the example of the wiring harness, what size or what type it is ? Again I’m very impressed with your work, its builders like you that cause me to strive to become a better builder Ray

Amazing,Steve

Thanks for all the great ideas guys. I have really gotten into engine bay detail lately. I really like your idea of sanding down the firewall and adding real wire , thanks for that Steven. They were all great ideas, you guys are my go to “research center “ lol. I usually don’t post much, but I’m here every day lurking and learning. Ray

I have done a couple of searches but didn’t see anything on this topic. I was wondering if anyone has any tricks they use to paint the wiring without out it becoming a sloppy mess lol Here’s an example I think of a 69 Impala with a lot of wiring detail

I quit stopping a long time ago lol. Here’s a couple of ideas for glass cases from IKEA . This is about 10 years worth of building after retirement, so yes you need more room my friend 🤪
