MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. Got these 2 jeep j10 kits. One is going to be box stock and the other is going to be a racetruck inspired by my sons hot wheel jeep j10. The snowmobile i think I am going to let him build in a few years from now.
  2. This irks me right now when I was on my way home from work and to pick up my son from his daycare The road out from my work is so badly plowed so there are only deep tiretracks that the car gets stuck in and in one of those deep tracks a piece of ice must have had just the right height to hit the valve in the tire, pushing it in and destroying it... now I have a spare but apparently last time i let someone borrow my car they helped them selves to the jack so there is nothing i can do by my self right now.... I have help on the way with a jack, summertire and tools so I can change it...
  3. Got these 2. The Scania i thought of building it out of the box but as I left the shop i bought it from a real one passed by that had dual rear axles so I am going to add one axle to it so it is more like a scandinavian truck. The western star is probably going to end up donating its chassie and driveline to end up as a Dodge Bighorn, I already have the non Coca-Cola version of the Western star in my stash
  4. Got these 3 Mack DM800 to use for some transkits i have. 1 is going to be a Mack B81 V8, 1 is going to be a Brockway 351 and the last will be a "flintstone" Mack (dm800 without offset cab) Also found out that the DM800 kit is no longer in production so for those that have been thinking about buying one, now is the time to do it.
  5. Saw this on facebook: Hello folks. My name is Matthew Arnold and I'm the new caretaker of AITM. I purchased the assets from the Natale family late last year. I'm currently working on remodelling a two car garage to facilitate casting, packing and shipping the large range of parts and kits. The goal is to be able offer the same rapid service we came to expect from the business. We hope to be operational some time in Q1 of 2025. Looking forward to working with all of you! Best regards, Matt
  6. Got a Mack valueliner 6cylinder conversion kit, already have the v8 valueliner conversion from auslowe so now i can build both verisons of the valueliner. The difference i can see in them is that the v8 has a sloping hood and complete wheelarches as the 6cyl version has a more straight hood a bit shorter and seperate wheelarches for the right side where the aircleaner are, the 6cylinder conversion also comes with 2 different sunvisors.
  7. Got some much needed work done to the farm this week. First replaced broken rooftiles on the barn, i thougt it was only about 10 that was bad but it ended up with me replacing about 80 tiles.. took me a whole day.. Got the extension we had bulit 2 years ago painted so now the exterior is not only primer. Fixed the exterior vents for the bathrooms so now it is not just a ugly hole in the wall were the fans vent to the outside. Removed the old unused tv antenna, those things are heavier then they look apparently.. almost dropped it from the skylift when I loosened the bolts holding it. Put up snow protection railing on the building where the furnace is in since we walk almost directly under that roof every day all year long and sometimes have to jump out of the way of the snow that comes crashing down. Cut down an old appletree that was about to die and removed some rosehip bushes that was everywhere, yes i got stund by their thorns so many times i lost count. Now I just need to get out the digger and remove the stumps that are left I have no idea how i managed all that work in only 3 days and at the same time having to work at my job and watch my son.
  8. Found the pic's of my order on my phone, here they are. It was hard to get good pictures of the parts with them being white and bad lighting in the room i was in then.
  9. I have ordered from them. The quality is good from the castings on the Mack b81 and brockway 361 i bought the diamondplating on the bumpers are nice, logos and emblems are nice to and easy to paint them so they stand out. Only thing i think looks a bit off is that I feel the aircleaners are a bit to small. I have posted pic's of what I ordered somewhere on this site but dont remember where right now.
  10. Thanks. I am going to try and if that does not work i will scan them and send them to someone who can print them out for me.
  11. Thanks the 0402 sounds like it is the size i need and prewired also sounds good. Will check out evans design to and see if they ship worldwide.
  12. What size led lights is good for using if I want to add working lights to a build? I was thinking that I want working headligts, sidemarkers, rear lights and maybe reverse/worklights for it. Maybee even going for interior and get the dash to light up. Where is a good place to buy what I need from?
  13. I have some decalsets i cant get anymore and want to make copies of them before i use them. Can i use a normal printer and put decalpaper in it and make copies that way? I know the colors could come out a little off compared to the original but will it work?
  14. Got this plane today. Not many parts but they are huge. The fusilage is almost exactly the length of the box.
  15. Decided to count how many fenceposts my fence have since it has been bad since we moved here. Since this is a homebuilt fence i cant buy the style it is and i have to make it myself. Found out that if i make 600 posts i will have 5 spares to fix the existing fence.... As a bonus we are expanding it and adding more fence sections and are going to have the same style so in total i will have to make 3000 identical posts... atleast i know what i am going to do during my vacation....
