  1. I understand they can replicate Welch's Flintstones jelly jars with a 3% +/- 3% accuracy.
  2. There are LIDAR scanners with better scanning resolutions available. The cost plenty o'dough, though.
  3. From the Polycam website: Up to 2% accuracy....essentially 98% inaccurate and not worth bothering with.
  4. A.4 or .5mm wire can be used to attach a door handle through a pre-drilled hole on the door and CA can be applied from the back side of the hole to secure the door handle without damaging the painted side.
  5. The EL wire requires an inverter to operate on DC current. Perhaps Chad used something similar to this.
  6. Sounds like Armor-All for model cars.
  7. Harts Parts Resin does.
  8. I purchase Weld-On 3 by the pint.
  9. Of course it will, Like methylene chloride, MEK is a solvent. Applying anything more that the minimum required to bond surfaces will soften the materials causing them to deform. Priming (pickling) the mating surfaces improves the capillary effect, drawing either solvent into and across the join seam using minimal amounts of either solvent.
  10. Fuhgeddaboudit, Greg. These chrome stickers were lousy when the kit was released in 1992. They didnn't conform to the trim contours when new. Useless after 31 years. Get BMF.
  11. Honestly, how many LHS are there?
  12. And where would someone go to buy stinky cheese? Right here:
  13. Dirt Modeler is a bum. Always with another story about working on the house he was moving into or the latest car accident while he was wasted.
  14. Not difficult and adds some pizzazz. Check out Evan Designs.
  15. A little levity never killed anyone. Even if it did, you can't prove nuthin', see?
  16. I believe the "fts" is a modified diphthong and is pronounced like a "P".
  17. I've been dealing with choosing the right Limburger and Blue Stilton Cheese platter to serve as an appetizer at a memorial birthday party for my late cat. I still manage to be polite and gracious in a NYC kind of way, which isn't saying much. Now. gedouttahere before I call the cops.
  18. Are the wheels and bodies smooth?
  19. Art imitates life. The plastic headlight assemblies on '80s-'2000s cars did too.
  20. I scratched an axe handle, a shovel handle and a baseball bat in 1/35 scale from real wood. This is me selecting the choicest logs from Maine's forests to whittle down into perfectly scaled and accurately designed miniatures examples of the originals. I also fabricated the axe head and shovel blade from individual 100 lb ingots of high carbon steel which were artisanally smelted by me using this Bessemer Process furnace I picked up for 38 bucks (w/free shipping!) on fleabay.
  21. I really enjoyed watching you play for the Knicks.
  22. I happened across DiOlex Production's eBay listings. Lots of interesting items.
  23. Great! That means new tires can be tooled for the '62 Mopars.
  24. Nice! Williams Bros. produced really interesting subjects. They also made Wright Wasp and Whirlwind engines.
