This protractor with grooves to cut into.The straight scale has grooves every 5 mm. Without having tried this tool feels very promising.

Angel T - A not so box-stock build of the Monogram Uncertain T

Just the box, I will repair, reinforce and varnish with Pledge before using it for ongoing projects. It will be so much nicer on the workbench no matter what I build.

The Aluma Coupe and the Chezom tires were known to crack after a short time, unfortunately long enough for many builders to glue the wheels on....

Perfect, like the pictures of next year cars in the 70’s.

What Did You Accomplish Today? (Model Car Work)
Ulf replied to Snake45's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
A slightly pretentious still life, it was the first time in many many years that I sanded a rim from the back and it went like that... all of a sudden the ring in the middle was loose but it could be fixed from the back with plasticard. Now I have to do a small flat iron and a bolt head. After this there will be a wooden tool box for jack and some tools, the Jeep is probably not very reliable. -

It is, ok not on the road but so unique that I couldn't resist posting a picture. It was really an experience to see it live. The gallerist told me it was insured up to 70 million dollars. -

Really strange, they were very good cars for their purposes. As a plumber's car in town they were optimum size vs space, we had a small pull out vice at waist height at the back so you could stand under cover under the hatch and solder etc. A bigger car was no better actually, deeper to reach in and harder to park. Revell may well make a double cab, they are starting to get cult status because of the price development of the previous ones.

I seem to recall that five-hole slot mags are four-bolted.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked my jig, here are a couple more. First of all, I have jigs not because I am a perfectionist or that I have high ambitions, I have these to facilitate, to cope. The aluminum profiles are worth their weight in gold to see if it is perpendicular, support etc. The aluminium plate,I have drilled holes perpendicularly (eeeh a mechanical workshop) and I use it to glue plasticard rod to parts just perpendicularly, very good, dry over a nigth or two. Wooden blocks in different sizes are nice to have on hand. As you can see, the roll bar turned out ok but the front track width needs to be adjusted. -

Oh dear, I guess I have to re-prioritize on the workbench again...

It really looks fantastic. We have to remember that repainting has always been around, on summer vacation when I was 14(1980) we went after the fairground to a car book store that was only open Saturday morning and Wednesday evening. There and then a friend of the shop owner came with his blue gull wing, the paint was improved in several places, including around the windshield wipers but he really drove it.

See what I found. VW T3 Transporter, Revell Nr. 7382 That kit could be a plumber's car one day if Revell is on board. https://www.modellversium.de/kit/artikel.php?id=14084
