Steel tubing thin wall hypodermic source?
89AKurt replied to 89AKurt's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Letting you know, I ordered on the 10th, received today (12)! The website is easy to use, lot's of sizes to choose from, 12" lengths have to be better for shipping than 30", quality is very good.- 28 replies

Oh man, that's one I finished WAY BEFORE you have (last century). ? From the motorized era, think it's one of the first car kits from Tamiya. I corrected the louvers on the deck, added screen on the other vent holes. Driver window removed like it's rolled down. Little spoiler on the wiper, gotta have that! The headlights are moveable too, that's super important. ? The Lambo S-tank is another story.

Cheapskate Engineering Co.: scrap 1" x 4" cedar board, think it was a coat hanger, it does not tip over yet is light. I was going to say I use it every time, but some projects don't work because of the body curve, or not big enough. Typical operation: I've saved every big Testors paint bottle, good size and weight, rolled masking tape has always worked. This project I wanted something like a rotisserie, but didn't want to risk spinning, so made a wood base and crammed/glued baling wire into the sides, that goes into the wheel hub holes (Tamiya), easy to bend for adjustment. I use a variety of holders, tweezers, medical clamps, sprue, cloths pins, wood blocks. Use cedar sticks, drill holes, little parts with pins are glued on with Titebond wood glue (mirrors for example). My biggest problem is waiting long enough before touching again. ?

Thanks for going to this much effort! I was curious, since I haven't really followed this until the movie came out. Looks great!

I have two of those AMT kits, one is going to get built, the other I picked up from an estate, never saw this box art before. I never heard of Frog, learned something today. -
OMG was just thinking of this yesterday when I went to Phoenix. Many years ago I overheard a conversation, old man lawyer said not not sit on your wallet. Really helps!

I recently used MicoMark rivet decals. I would not wish to learn the hard way about masking, but would think after you apply them over light primer, and then more primer before color, might work.

Thanks. There was a time when jerks with bats would take out mailboxes. -
Ford vs. Ferrari Film
89AKurt replied to Richard Bartrop's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I had started Suitable kits for 'Ford vs. Ferrari' film to not step all over this thread about the movie. If the Admin team thinks these should be merged, by all means. -

*Had to* get the Porsche, the MINI was only $5 because it had a note the roof was sawed off, no, it's made that way. Military cargo for trucks in my stash. And the magazine with coverage of a contest I attended, the race car I built.
