  1. Moron this developing story at the top of the hour.
  2. Beautifully done Kari! I really like the colour combo!👍😎
  3. I picked this one up cheap at a flea market. It is complete except for a missing transmission rear cover. I assume that maybe a youngster may have attempted to build it and gave up? The engine and drivetrain was pretty much assembled (unpainted thankfully) with I think the old Testors tube glue.😬 Some parts were not properly located and the poseable steering was glued solid. Last night I managed to disassemble it mostly, and this morning I drilled out and replaced all the pins in the steering components, and re-assembled the engine.
  4. Are there any other kits besides these two? I’ve been musing about building a ‘32 Deuce hot rod, but with a Chevy instead of Ford. Thanks, Greg
  5. It’s best to use a vegetable based glue.
  6. I just pulled the pic off an old “show us your gluebombs” thread, so I assumed it wasn’t yours, or anyone on here’s build.😳
  7. Does anyone make an accurate version, either styrene or resin?
  8. Get a #5 needle and tip for the Paasche H and you should be good for larger scales. Paasche also has 1oz. and 3oz. bottles for the H which hold a lot more paint than the the cup does when doing those large jobs.
  9. Know your limits and exceed them at your own peril.
  10. Often I sit down at my model bench with big plans and then they don’t materialize.
  11. Excellent work! Your weathering is spot on! 👍
  12. Great idea and beautiful execution!😎👍
  13. Steven’s next completed build after planting his whole yard with marijuana.🤪
  14. Probably not very old, but here are the tube glues that I have.🤷‍♂️
  15. Picked these up at a local flea market, both kits for $30. I checked and the Audi is complete, but unfortunately the engine and drivetrain are assembled and unpainted.😕 The Mack is unstarted but had one bag of parts open and one sealed. It is the original issue (T535)🙂 I assume it is complete from a preliminary look.
  16. Future floor polish makes a good clear coat so I am told.
  17. Except for one loud crack…it’s all peaceful and quiet out there.
  18. Nice work you are doing Evan to fix all the deficiencies in the kit pieces. I like your steering column.👍
  19. Another couple of rounds in the pond and we’ll see what you have to work with.🧐
  20. I like to use 0.020” brass for pinning small parts if possible. I do also have 0.015” and 0.010” phosphor bronze wire that I have used for extremely tiny parts.
  21. You might be getting old and cranky,🤔 but that’s beside the point….neighbours should be respectful. You shouldn’t have to resort to this but a set of these bluetooth beauties might help when it gets real annoying.
