Well, I worked on it Saturday but finished today. Added a new bench top to my work space. The old one split down the middle and was rocking. New top is a foot longer than the old one, but fits nicely. Added another Craftsman tool box to help organize my growing stuff. Added the side workspace last year. now to reorganize about a hundred big rig kits.

Convoy, take 7

Jurgen, looking at your builds just puts a smile on my face. Love the picture from the movie and your truck staged in the same manner, brings real story to your build. Well done. -

Lonestar - Hot Rod custom
Gary Chastain replied to LOBBS's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I have this kit but was undecided what to do with it, like you. Like your ideas, will be watching. -
Between camping trips and summer projects, I did get my new top cut down to seven feet, added the third toolbox and got everything installed. Now I need a finish on the top and then time to reorganize all my stuff. May add a center light on the main bench, as my longer bench spreads out my two lights. Gotta be ready for modeling season (when the weather turns cold in northern Michigan).

Detail is paying off, looking good -
I have been MIA for a while. The wife and I have been exploring Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado and Wyoming this summer and also my brand new Jeep is kicking my ………. All kinds of computer issues with it. But anyway, the modeling has not left my mind. My bench cracked right down the middle and everything rocks on the old bench top. So I bought a new bench top and a Craftsman toolbox to slide under the bench. The new bench top will be about a foot longer than the old one but hey, who doesn’t need more bench space. Gotta wait till it cools down a bit to get up to my hobby room to tear everything apart, rebuild my bench and hopefully do a better job of organizing my stuff.

Peterbilt 359 (full custom)
Gary Chastain replied to Gary Chastain's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Sorry Ron, not sure how I missed this. I did pickup the cross country as well, it has a much better frame without the molded on suspension and will use that kit instead. -
