Interesting. I sure wonder where is it going?

Hi Peter, For I am (very) curious about it too: did you finally got the information about fixing the pin/axle? I'm not sure if this can help but there's a video about the gluing techniques he uses, there : May that help?

Please note that I haven't shown nothing at all for this is not my video and I haven't made anything of it. The question of how the cutted end of the pin is "locked" remains open as far as my understanding goes. Therefore I am happy that you are willing to discuss that. So, you suggest that it is brazed (which may not work with chromed pins)? I feel like I should be able to braze the cutted end of the pin to nothing more that the closest part of the hinges. The part of the hinges are very thin so they should store very little heat, making it easy to control which one would suck the solder - maybe? That would be certainly more informative to ask directly as a comment to the video, for those who own a Google account. Thank you very much for your interest, anyway!

I thought that (not mine at all) video was worth mentionning, for the case some of you didn't noticed it. Hinges start at around 8 min.

Perfect idea! I need to do that as soon as possible... 😎

Nice attention to detail in each every step... I'll stay tuned for sure, and thanks for sharing.

Awesome! This is what scaled custom building is all about... 😎

A fan brush? Thanks, I may try this

Great technique. The final coat of clear orange is what makes the outcome really look like varnished (pine) wood. I wish I could know some more about the brush you used, though : I have the feeling that a soft brush would lay/blend the color but your pictures show strikes instead, like the brush was rather pretty hard?

That's a clean paint job!

I don't know about the movie but I like those garage scenes.

Pretty inspiring mockups.

Or inside, once reworked as a beer pump, even though this kind of mod is not just my kind. I've been a long time fan of your work, by the way!

Sorry, Maybe you guys are used to straight/great vintage "Made in the USA" kits but it seems unfortunately pretty common to see warped parts on many recent kits. I could read that this was due to parts leaving the molds while still (too) hot, possibly to support a high processing rate... On a related matter, I was envisioning asking about the best way to massage a warped body!

Does that mean that you used the products but not the tools provided for their application? Awesome work by the way. I wouldn't say it was posted in the wrong section but the title was pretty puzzling to me!
