$700 million US? Man, people would never hear from me again. Forgot the whole "living the lifestyle" nonsense. Cars and trips and living rich and hanging with celebrities and all that. Screw that. We'd pack up and move. I'll just have my estate in the south of England, my other house on the west coast of Vancouver Island, and a handful of old Porsches and Land Rovers in each garage. And healthy donations to a local children's hospital and an animal shelter.

PM sent. 👍

That looks great!

I think we have asked nicely in the past to please not post post more than 10 pics in a single post. And most people were cool with that. Technically though, there's no limit to the number of pics one could post in a single post.

The 1976 Chevy stepside is spoken for. Everything else shown is still available.

Wow! I am VERY intrigued by this. Printing on cloth in my normal printer?! What kind of sorcery is this? now I have to investigate.

It's strange because some members, like yourself, have no issues with the size and quantities of the ads they see. Other members have provided examples of ads that cover content or multiple ads that get in the way of viewing posts. Part of it is due to Dave's work in trying to keep on top of the changes Google keeps making. Just when he sets the preferences and things looks good, boom. Changes behind the scenes and it all starts over again.

I was going to say the same. That looks a lot like an engine by Motabas. I have a few of them, and the quality of the print files is excellent. I think the link Les posted witll get you where you need to be.

We want to see that too. It's really difficult when google is involved. Google tailors the ads to each user's internet history. So when we keep searching for models, or possibly drag racing, or transkits, or hooker headers; well...you can see what words google might pickup on. But we have ideas.

Right now, the easy answer is...kind of...maybe. We don't want to limit peoples' access to the forums. The WIP and Under Glass sections are the main reasons we're all here (well, most of us anyway) so we're not planning to take away access. As for the Community sections, limiting access to Off Topic areas has been discussed. But nothing concrete is in place. The of the main goals of introducing a paid tier is to provide an ad-free experience to those who want it. I'm not getting into the weeds with all of the adviertising nonsense we have to deal with, but that's an important piece. We're asking for input because we want to see what is most important to people. And to determine whethr we can add features that make a paid tier worth the cost to members. If it was strictly for the convenience of going ad-free, we're not doing it. What content can we add that makes paying a yearly fee worth it? That's what we're trying to figure out here. And that's where suggestions are helpful. Of course, we really can't win. We've already been accused of pandering to the masses and that we're money grubbing greedy overlords that don't actually care about anyone but ourselves and the lining of our own pockets. But I digress....

That can be somewhat challenging with Andrey's designs. The scale and proportions will be just fine. However, one of the limitations of 3d printing a car bod yis that the material needs to be a little thicker. It will probably be 2, maybe 3 times thicker than the equivalent palstic kit. So fitting interiors and kit windows and whatnot will require some work. BUT, it can be done. A company like JLC3DP.com can print the entire "kit" from Andrey in whatever colours of resin you want. Including the "glass." I played on their site, and for about $6 US they'll print a body for a Porsche 911 in 1/24 scale. Plus shipping of course.

Hey everyone, If you haven't checked it out yet, head over to this active thread. We are planning the future of the board, and are planning to make some tweaks and adjustments. We NEED your input! Check the thread out and give us your ideas. Big or small, doesn't matter. Thanks!

You've come to the right place! Lots of people here will print for you. I've done it for people, many others have too. Hang tight, and people will respond here.

Not to give much away, but paid memberships have been a hot topic in the discussions we've had. What might a paid tier look like? There is no concensus on that yet. Lots of ideas though. And that's the point of this thread. We're going to make changes, and for some people, some features will disappear. Some people will get upset and threaten to leave. And some of those people will actually leave. But when you see what we've come up with, I think the majority of people will appreciate the changes and be fully supportive. They will make for a much more enjoyable MCM Forum experience. BUT...we need your help. We want all ideas, big and small. If you have examples of other forums' features that you really like or really hate, let us know. To make this the best it can be, we need your input. And if your friends here haven't posted ideas in this thread yet, go rattle their cages and tell them to get in here! We may not incorporate every suggestion, but we'll be paying attention to all of them. And do it this week, as we're having our first big official meeting about this on Saturday. Give us lots to discuss! And to help ease some concerns I know some people will have, ALL dollar figures we've discussed so far have been less than the cost of a single new Round2 kit. And that's yearly, not monthly.

As I'm reading your description, one YouTuber comes immediately to mind. Looking at a sprue like it's some mystical enigma, and misidentifying very obvious parts. Looks at a seat, says it appears to be a rear spoiler. I like the builders that don't speak at all. Just shows what's there, and then builds it.
