  1. Happy Birthday, Brandon.
  2. That is cool. Thanks, Andy. I'm going to have to go through all the Tips & Techniques posts and do the download thing. I wish I would have know about that download button a long time ago.
  3. I print hard copy and maintain a book of tips & techniques - mostly because I have no idea how to save them to a computer file. Excellent info Alyn. Thanks. You did the distributor using half rounds I believe and I'm been trying to make them.
  4. I like that M/T Sportsman looking tire (SHINY rim). You going to be selling/trading them? The tires that is.
  5. Very cool and very SHINY :) . What kind of finish did you put on the blower?
  6. Looks great. I just love those tires and have 6 or 8 pairs on order from Al.
  7. Thanks Hertsi. I should probably try to start taking at least 1 pic of my builds outside where the sunlight could hit the paint.
  8. Al mentioned he was working on them. I can't find them on his website. Where are they?
  9. Now that is SHINY. Can you imagine the amount of Brasso it would take to polish that thing?
  10. Rice burner as in a Japanese motorcycle. Also known as shavers, metric bike, and other very derogatory sayings.
  11. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who experiences search issues with the MCM site.
  12. Nice quickie, Hertsi. Those aren't chocolate chip, are they?
  13. Oh no. Another rusty/crusty build. Not my style but you did a nice job on it. I don't think Dr. Cranky will like it because he's been painting SHINY lately.
  14. If you're going to shave the side trim, shave the door handles and hood emblem too. I have to follow this build - looks good.
  15. Very nice. One of these days I'm going to try making a real diorama.
  16. But it's ugly!!
  17. You advised me about Coast Airbrush (and there's a nice box from them under the Christmas tree) so it's only fair to try and help you - and everyone else. Would you like more advise? Since that pen was expensive, use it only on SHINY :) builds. Ha, ha, ha. Or, keeping it in the season, ho, ho, ho.
  18. Nothing against Dick Blick but you might want to check pricing at Misterart.com. I have found identical items cheaper there.
  19. I'm fighting it, Neal. It's just a natural thing. SHINY :) RULES!
  20. Alright Weasel. SHINY :) FOREVER.
  21. Oh. I know Al is sometimes slow on filling orders because of the above stated reasons. Best of luck contacting him and tell him I said hi when you do get a hold of him.
  22. Al has a real job that causes him to travel all over. He's the probably best tire caster around and must be busy. Plus, he's a pretty decent guy. We had dinner together on his last trip to FLA. Oh wait. I see you live in Canada, Pat. Maybe Al is upset with our northern neighbors because of the cold weather you let seep to the south. I know I am.
