  1. my 9 yr old son and myself are trying to create a wheelstander that was featured in the Johnny Lightning "showstoppers!" series. It is G.E. Shumpert's "THUNDER WAGON" Dodge A-100 with the LRW kit, and we are trying to find someone who might possibly be able to make us a set of decals for this model. I am terribly lousy with handpainting letters, and my computer system is equally as lousy for re-creating them. I only have 2 pictures of this truck, one is from the actual package, and a friend sent me recent re-creation of the truck. I am not looking for exact replication of every single word on the truck, just the real basics. Any advice?? thank you very much in advance!! chris coffey

  2. i know there are quite a few Eurothane afficianato's here, so let me bounce this question off of ya'll. A couple months ago, i bought a quart of Omni clear & corresponding hardner (don't ask..) but i have used this clear about 5 times, and i followed the basic rule of thumb about cleaning the cap and pour spout off of the hardner, making sure the cap is on tight, and doing it quickly so i don't expose the hardner to any more air then needed, i also stored it in a air tight freezer bag, and stored it away in a dark, room temp drawer, but my stupid harder STILL dried out. Is there ANY way, or maybe something i might be doing, that is causing the hardner to prematurely go bad?? I have been told by a couple paint guys that once you open the hardner, you are S.O.L. is this true?? any sugestions?? i hate to keep spending money on hardner if i can do SOMETHING, ANYTHING to prolong the life of my hardner. BTW, this also happend to my martin senoir eurothane as well. Thanks so much in advance!! chris coffey

  3. hey there everyone!! just joined the forum on here, i am Chris Coffey, and i hale from the cold, but adjoining neighbor of Mr. Watson & Mr. Hutchings of North Eastern WA state, Spokane area!! I am a serious drag racing fanatic and builder of just about everything with the exception of NASCAR and semi trucks. I am also the model and pedal car show director for the Goodguys Great Northwest Nationals model car contest. To add to the less then impressiveness, i am also the President of the Scale Auto Builders of Spokane, a club that is about 15 members strong, and about 10 whenever i can come strong. I usually try to attend the Model Car Sunday's in Puyallup every other year. I am excited to finally get hooked up here, and look forward to interacting with other like-minded builders on the forum here. Now enough about me, let's hear from you!! chris coffey
