Low profile machinist square
aurfalien replied to aurfalien's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks for the feedback Mike. I'll wait for a coupon or something. Maybe they will do free shipping. -
Hi, Would any one happen to know of a source for a low profile square? MicroMark has a nice one but they are pretty pricy in general. https://www.micromark.com/Thin-Beam-Square

Hi, Your project looks amazing, well done! Any way to post more pics? I'd love to see a well lit side, front and rear profile shots as well as a good interior shot.

Hi, This is awesome, super nice. Every time I hear Stutz, i think of Wayne Carini of Chasing Classic Cars.

Hi, I'm unsure which I like better, the awesome engine or awesome rest of the car!

Help me find these items (tools)
aurfalien replied to Monty's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Hi, Well would this help; I just got mind and it comes with 3 suction cups being small enough to pick up head light lenses in my opinion. The suction cup pictured is the largest of the included 3 suction cups. -

Hi, Whats the application? -
Switch to an canned air, more effective
-
Thanks Steve. Actually not only was I disappointed with Purple Power but I came to loath it. I used the rest of it to clean my bath tub and switched to Comet which was more effective.
-
Doh sorry you are correct. The Super Clean works far better, let me correct my post. I've had both and got confused.

Hmm, interesting. How does it work on enamel as I know that I'll screw that up someday?

Hi, I consider myself a strip master due to lack of experience and many f-ups. My 3 Go2's are; ELO - Easy Lift Off by Testors. * Super Clean - Works far better then the other purple stuff. 91-99% Alcohol - Found at various drug stores. * Correction, Purple Power sorta sux. I believe these 3 are far superior to anything else I have tried.

Hi, Your kit looks really really nice. Stance is great.

Would this work for a paint booth?
aurfalien replied to r60man's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Well, perhaps try having charcoal or a bowl of baking soda or vinegar inside the unit. These may do a good enough of job in absorbing odor. I've used these materials to absorb freshly lacquered large furniture. -

This makes a lot of sense to me. I built one from server/storage card board boxes, very heavy duty and weight was 30 pounds It was open on the face of course and I made sure to vacuum and wipe down the environment before each spray session. In fact the preparation took longer then panting. The only reason I would like an enclosed solution is for the paint fumes and containing the over spray. But perhaps this is good enough providing my area is dust free which it is/was. https://www.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=PASR2217&P=FR&gclid=EAIaIQobChMItouXzv6D3wIVmFYNCh1bdAc5EAQYBCABEgKk1fD_BwE -

Wow this is very cool. Curious though, do you need to circulate air? If so, why not a low volume of air if you can't wait for the paint fumes to settle. -
Hi, Wow, looks great and very real. My mom had one, biggest piece of sh$t ever. Well almost ever, I'm sure there were bigger POS's, but still. It's a miracle domestic car companies survived.

Your rotary cutter gets very high marks on various reviews. it's considered a professional class paper cutter and a tad less in price then the above Fiskars rotary that I listed.. -

Hi and thanks for the sugestions. I was thinking of getting this one being a 5" square for ~$18 shipped. The reviews on it seem very good. My problem has been slippage due to light weight and feel this would mitigate that. There is this one carried by Umm made from 2mm galvanized steel which I like; -
Hi, First, sorry for all the tool question, I'm re building my tool set. I've had straight and curved cuticle scissors which worked pretty well. However how do you all feel about the Castroviejo brand and type?
