Do you know anyone you could borrow a goat from? they'll get rid of it in no time but any other plants will be eaten too

Theres a rusty spot on my cooker top thats been annoying me, so this morning i bought a tin of white stove enamel. I got it all treated with some rust eater we use on the boat, and the paint said to use with out primer. It laid down nice and smooth but now 2 hours after painting it, its turning pink!! So now to fix it I'm going to have to get someone to remove the top for me so I can paint the whole top. Interetingly though, the paint on my hands has stayed white

Its not really a space race, just a load of tax dodgers having a apendage waving contest.

3D Printed Honda N400 Drift Car
stitchdup replied to shucky's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Thats pretty wild, looking forward to seeing it built -
Very slick looking build, I'll be using it for reference when i get to mine

recent arrivals, I've had the audi on pre order for months so am happy its now here. I'll be building it as the road car version probably. I've got a heap of the tamiya bugs but this is my first of the recent revell bugs. The italeri bug is decent enough but the wheels look awful so I might strip them and paint them to use on a rod

The number plate looks like a fake, the year letter makes it registered in 2001 and I'm pretty sure they were all dust by then -
I've got a 1/24 scirocco race car I'm planning to mix with a revell mk1 golf so I can have a 1/24 version. About all I'll be using from the scirocco is the body and glass though, the rest is way too much like a toy

Ordering from Hobbylinc.com
stitchdup replied to plasticprime's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I've used them and hlj quite often. The people that had long wait times most likely had some items that were backordered/arriving soon or had items in their personal warehouse (this is where items ordered but not in stock are stored after paying while they wait for the other items to come into stock, so if you dont check the box they will hold orders until the entire order can be sent) and didn't tick the box to say send now. Its easy to overlook the box as its light blue/grey on a white background. They are good if you want Japanese kits as you can save about a third or more on the retail price (not on euro or usa kits) and really for kits coming from halfway round the planet shipping isn't too bad. Another place worth looking into is bna modelworld in Australia, good prices (check the exchange rates first but my last order was near $2aus to the £) and cheap fast shipping with a lot of aftermarket stuff that is discontinued and out of stock elsewhere and their first language is english -
I decided the roof looked too long so I've made it into more of a coupe. I also found a cadillac engine (currently in stripper) that I think I'll use instead of the chevy. I think I'll add some more plastic to the rear fender so I can add el matador style scoops as the hard edge isn't really working with the curves of the rest of the body

1955 Packard taillight

I've not seen any like that but you might be able to cut down a couple of bubblegum lights from a cop car or something, -
Tesla or other EV power units?
stitchdup replied to Joe Handley's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
theres 3 different electric motors pictured here, http://www.currentracing.co.uk/ -
Since none of my vws have been working out for me I thought try a change of pace and pulled out a long stalled build. I'll be using the engine out of the 39 chevy coupe kit with the flamed car on the box as a lot of the chevy 6 parts have been stolen for other stuff. Theres no real plan other than to finish it but the colour will probably be one from hok. The body is pretty close to done but there is no interior whatsoever so I'll probably try and modify one of Ed Flucks t'n'r interiors from a 50s ford.
