Cool! That looks like something I might have done back in the early 70’s.😎 I wish I had kept the models I built as a youth. -
First thing I do when starting a new model is google images of a real one in a few different colors. That helps to determine what are body seams that stay and mold lines that need to be removed.

The smallest tip is 1/64” which is 0.015625”. Multiply that by 25 to get a 1:1 width of 0.39” or just over 3/8”. I can’t imagine myself being steady enough to get a straight line without a guide of some sort.

“Workbench” can mean anything from a desk, to a table, to an old door on a couple of sawhorses.

Question: Are the BSI gold foam-safe glues as strong as the regular glues? If they are it would make more sense to use the gold exclusively because it won’t fog clear parts either.

All the issues with the 10 speed means I will NEVER trade in my ‘17 F250 6spd for a new model. I will repair it endlessly if necessary. Why in the world would you want 10 gears anyway….? Smoothness? I don’t recall ever getting whiplash from my old 3 spd autos. I know fuel economy numbers are the driving force behind the shift but with the cost of repairs it sure doesn’t make economic sense.

And here is the Cougar 1.😎 https://www.autoevolution.com/news/cougar-406-concept-the-story-of-ford-s-forgotten-gullwing-concept-car-223532.html I think the Cougar ll would have sold…not sure about the One? It looks too much like something George Jetson might own.😬 -
Thanks, I could see that trick coming in handy.😎

“Doh” is best accompanied by a self inflicted sharp smack to the forehead.
