That comes from being a sucker for glue-bombs.🤪

Trains like that I would think would need more than 660 horsepower?😳

And I got the body primed and the interior completed. I am not sticking with any stock color schemes.

Somehow during my disassembly and reassembly the engine location seems to have shifted slightly causing the intake shroud to not line up with the opening for it.😕 I didn’t realize it until I had the engine glued solidly in place.😳 So I am taking the easy way out and eliminating the mounting pins for the shroud. I will glue it flat on top of the intake tubes after the body is mounted. Very little of the engine is visible after it is in place anyways.🧐

Thanks Guys. It worked better than I hoped.🙂

Shortly after getting my H, I ditched the allen head set screw and put a short 8-32 machine screw in its place and kept a stubby Robertson screwdriver handy in the booth. Yesterday I went to HD and picked up a brass female thumbscrew since they didn’t have males.😕 I added an 8-32 machine screw with a drop of red locktite and cut it to length. No more tools required now to install or change nozzles.🙂

Beautiful work on all of them!👍

Outstanding build John! It is a real beauty,👍😎

It’s looking mighty fine Gerry!👍😎

Cool project Ken.😎 I like seeing these old kits get built.👍

World events could be altered if time travel was possible.

The chop looks good Jim. Nice work replacing the gutters!👍

The new paint job looks great Ron.👍 Wow thay Hasagawa foil sure is shiny…it looks real nice against the red.😎

Thanks for the tip Noel. I rarely need more light. That was just a quick and easy way to get a bit extra for a particular fiddly little task. I thought it might be helpful to folks who might not have an abundance of lighting.

Thanks for that link Chris.🙂I was unaware of them.

Today we are dog-sitting a neighbours 13 year old chocolate lab named Lucy. She doesn’t see well and is scared of hard flooring. She fretted when her owner left for a while. Then paced around panting, but her tail never stopped wagging. After an hour she settled down nicely. She knows my wife well as “the cookie lady”.

I use lacquer thinner to clean the airbrush for all paints. It doesn’t work well for Vallejo paints though so I use windshield washer fluid for them.

Outstanding work on the detailing Adam! It looks fabulous!👍😎

Well I pried the rear panel off and low and behold…there is a fourth wheel and tire.🙂

Henway is a play on words that sent me down the rabbit hole of googling largest chickens which turned up the fact that Jersey Giants are the largest chickens on average, but the largest in the world is a Brahma rooster named Merakli who weighs almost 17 pounds and stands 2.8 feet tall.

Here’s an old thread on the topic Carl. https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/102205-suggestions-prep-resin-body-for-paint/

Now Boldlygo is over run with millennials wondering what all the fuss is about.

They look great Bob.👍

Outstanding work Matt!👍 It is a thing of beauty!😎

The Mobius kit I traded for the race version at the club meeting today. The other two…what can I say…I’m a sucker for glue bombs.🤪 The Cougar ll is missing one wheel and tire, but I also grabbed some rims at the meet that should work. I don’t think the decals belong to it?? The Datsun is missing the driveshaft and the driver’s side mirror. Both I can easily fabricate should I ever get around to it.🥴
