stitchdup replied to PierreR89's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
have you looked at dolls house hinges? they are available in 1/24 and some of the door ones look just like those you've shown -

Fun night on the boat i work on, about an hour after i started we lost all but 2 lines aloing with our shore power cable. I was onboard by myself for about an hour and a half after until the local pilot boat manged to get alongside and put a small crew on. I'm usually the nightwatch/cleaner but so i really didn't have any idea what to do. we're still not back at the pier but at least we now have power again and there are folk that know what to do. The boat i work on is a seacat passenger ferry so I was not really in any danger even if it went ashore but it i was still extremely stressed over it as its a lot of responsibility if it did go ashore. We have the local lifeboat on standby just in case anything else goes wrong tonight

I've said that many times, but last year I got rid of my tv to make space for more kits and still had to add more shelving. Currently I have them stacked to the roof and under anything that has space for a kit. In my deffence, the past year was different as i was working a lot more so spending it on kits for when my wages drop was like me planning ahead

Maybe trying another set of wheels/tyres would let it work for you -
What did you see on the road today?
stitchdup replied to Harry P.'s topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
this is why you wash your smart car in 30 degree water. Really its a motorised wheel chair under all that plastic -
Today I made a revell charger chassis fit a johan 63 plymouth and got half way through building a turbo system to fit the 440, them I got some more done on a very 60s 37 ford, a 65 c10 crew cab dually custom and the 39 chevy custom. I'm trying to free up some space on the bench so I can start the revell vw camper but all my projects have snowballed so it may be some time before i get to it. At least it will only be slammed on some brms

they all redirect to motortrend, says something about european data laws then opens motortrend
-
Went to have a look on hot rod mag website and it redirected me to motortrend. Its seems those of us in europe aren't allowed to look any more. Tried super street, lowrider and truck trend too but it was the same story. All i can look at on any motortrend site is new standard cars which have very little interest to me. Anybody able able to suggeat some non motortrend sites that feature modified cars and trucks?

Nice tutorial, I'll have to try this some time. Is this the same vinyl they use to wrap cars?

That gembella kinda reminds me of the rx7 fortune body kit (the one that got totalled in tokyo drift) -
I've got some of them but they seem kinda thick for the spray cans. They are big cans though compared to duplicolour. Next time I use them I'm going to try the warming the can trick to see if it makes a difference

stitchdup replied to RandyB.'s topic in Model Cars
Very nice, -
Sweet, I bet that would be fun to take on the track

Nice collection, the 36 custom is very similar to one I've got inline for building

I'd buy some of them or any other brands from that era if they were available

Thats a nice front end, I used the same front end when I did mine but wish now i had left off the chevy eyebrows from above the lights
