No thanks. I don't go out of my way traveling out of the city to get models. I'm not crazy about coughing up $30+ in bridge and/or tunnel tolls.

I saw them three times. First time was at Nassau Coliseum on June 17, 1975 for the "Wish You Were Here" tour. In '77, my friends and I saw them twice, July 1 and July 4, at Madison Square Garden for the "Animals" tour. Lots of 'cid, man. BTW, the summer of '77 was the greatest concert season ever.

I'll raise you. I live in the largest city in this here country and the last friggin' hobby shop in Manhattan, Jan's Hobby Shop on the Upper East Side, closed in September after the owner, known as Madame Collette Hutchins by everyone in the neighborhood, died during the summer. The only place that sells model kits anywhere in the five boroughs is Rudy's Hobby & Art located in the Astoria section of Queens. Most of the kits are 25+ years old. He also sells model trains and religious items. Gong to Rudy's gives me a good excuse to hit the Bohemian Beer Hall a couple blocks away. Fee-Fi, Fo-Fum, Hic!

Part 2 is #48 in the Workshop Series link I provided.

The correct way. Other Testors Workshop tutorials can be found HERE.

It's a rocket ship.

Yes.

I've only had 22 20 oz. mugs so far.

You wrote that he did provide it.

The dripoff is negligible. It's like collecting the condensation on a glass of iced tea and placing it in a container so you can reuse the water.

You're not supposed to soak parts In ELO. Read the instructions on the back of the can: The ingredients in ELO will break down polymers (styrene and other similar plastics) and resins if the items are submersed in it for extended periods of time. That means even overnight. Lastly, ELO is not manufactured to be reusable. Refer to the first sentence in my post.

Posting two separate threads asking the same question three hours apart isn't going to increase the chances that somebody will respond with an answer you might agree with.

NEVER soak parts in ELO. The label indicates this. Just brush it on the model.

Castrol sold it to Super Clean Acquisitions around 2005; so, it's virtually impossible to still find the Castrol stuff on store shelves today.

I find that heat sealing a painted and decaled model yields optimum results.

Can I get a refund or possibly sue you for destroying my long-held, but entirely incorrect, belief that this was true? If it's all the same with you, I prefer a lawsuit since I can squeeze much more mazuma out of you in an out of court settlement than I'd get from a crummy refund.

Or, oxygen deprivation. Nobody bothers to read to warning label on dry cleaner bags before using them as space helmets anymore.

Only if you're weighing weed, man.

trainmastermodels.com has ELO.

That's what happens when you use a double-barreled shotgun.

Nice! Great tips, Greg.

Those bird droppings in the second photo are way out of scale. You should have made the car larger.

I didn't care for either. No girly pitchers.
