This has to be a record for shipping charges for a plastic model. A round trip ticket to Japan to personally pick it up would cost less Then at the bottom of the listing is another "quote" for shipping at $26 If anything we love clear and accurate listings ?

Howdy folk,today im gonna share some of my home brew model tools. First up is a baking soda blaster i use to abraid the surface of a model with lots of raised detail,like rivet or raised panel lines you would find on aircraft and such That is a trigger blow gun,some small pipe fittings and a paint cup from a detail gun.I put a piece of duc tape over the breather hole on the paint cup For reasons unknown to me i have to pulse the trigger to make it work but is dose work well,the upper wing in the photo is the b4 and after soda blasting Next is a stand i put together using the Tamiya paint stand and a mic stand.Reason for that is there is a no spray order in force here in the dungeon for spray cans of paint. Only airbrushing is allowed in the spray booth.Since i use primarily spray primers and clear coats i use the stand in the garage and pray bus or dust dosent spoil the paint

Here's one fresh from the dungeon much straight out of the box with the exception of tires and wheels that came from the spares box. Colors used are Vallejo 71.073 metallic black and Createx 5313 pearl lime with Rust-olum 2x clear gloss I used metallic aluminum as the under coat so it did'nt give a lot of the pearl effect Thank you in advance for lookin and commits welcom

Thank you everyone.There was lots of dremel time to get the LRW chassis and door panels to fit plus the window fitting.Several times i was worried i would dremel through the body but luck was on my side .I ended up taking the LRW front window and cutting it in half and fitted each one .As my foggy memories serves me i remember door wing glass in the 1to1 which was'nt in the LRW kit

I bought this on the cheap but for what it cost im happy with it,Lots of fitting and sanding to get this togrther. The back story is as a kid in the 60s there was a flower shop/green house mom and pop operation that i would hang out and sometimes do odd jobs.They had a A100 van for delivery,dont remember the year but it was mid sixty's, that i had many rides. This is a replica using only my memories as i couldn't find any pics of the van. Thanks for lookin and stay safe and model on !

s a couple of Ford projects i can put in the books The Ranchero is in dire need of a front grill ,bumper rework,other than that i was happy with them. Thanks for lookin ?

Who else here is a musician or plays an instrument?
Spruslayer replied to Hotrod 97's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I started at about 6 after seeing the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show,first time in front of an audience in the 6th grade at a school function,then to high school sock hops.At 18 started in the dive bars,which was illegal at the time and it was downhill from there.At 35 yo i took a 15 year break,started again until arthritis made it so i couldn't play more than 15 minuets at a time.At one point i had 25 guitars,along with several other stringed instruments.Why did a guy need 5 Strats,4 teles, several acoustic ,Les pauls,Sg,s ,some shredder axes, i look back shaking my head.There was some good times but working a full time real job, and then running all weekend not to mention if we ever rehearsed during the week was probably not the smartest thing i did.As they say,hindsight is 20/20.My advice to someone considering taking such a path is if your gonna do it make that is your focus until it can provide a living without having to work a normal job as the ones who suffered the most was my family from me not being there,and when i was i was exhausted.Back then if you had a band and wanted to play, there was a bar on every corner with live music.
