About the same here. I am realizing I have more ideas than time! I'm going to be happy with my laser machines. I had to self teach 100% of that and while I will watch desk top injection.....I will only watch. Thx

If I had enough interest in this I'd do the analysis myself. I headed up the due diligence team on some of the worlds largest bank mergers. But I invested a lot in two laser cutting machines to use in the model rail hobby. Thankfully I looked on it as my retirement 'hobby' expenditure. I have never made any money per the books....but lots of fun. Desk top injection looks like it may be the same. This was a laser project that I did sell copies of....but at around cost. thx

More interesting....... I knew of epoxy molds and aluminum short use molds. These have been used for a long time in the model rail hobby. But as a retired bank analyst......I'd still like to see cost analysis to see if this could be the start of the next 'Modelhaus' cottage industry. Thanks

thanks!

Interesting.......but even more questions. What does tooling cost on a mold this size??? Is there a tooling shop in the USA that can build these molds economically? What is the max OZ of each shot?? What does the injection machine cost?? What plastics can be used?? Their cost? Many more but unless these are all answered in a way to make it work on a model car level...it doesn't matter. But cool info.

If the Salvino's MC looks that good I'll be OK....buy buy a number of them.

Really really well done!!!

Maybe TeresaWolf will?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Another fee for a different SKU....not worth the cost when R2 makes so many Coke decals in kits and standalone sets.

I don't see Yesterdays reprinting any decal. Unless someone buys the art and reprints them.....buy what's out there. Decal sales are down to a level it's hard to reprint 300 sheets and sell through them all. I have a few obscure decal sheets that only sold 10 sets....but I print my own so thats OK.

The Revell is not perfect.....but MUCH closer that the PHOTOS of the JR kit LOOK. The JR's front fenders, bumpers and the trunk and TV panel, along with roof, all LOOK funky to me even compared to the Revell. As I said....until I get one in hand.

I will wait until I have it in hand.......but based on photos it will not get a A+ grade from me. Why they did not look at the Revell Monte Carlo kit to get basic shapes in a eaasy way??? Revell kit

I'll need 2 60 Chevys and 2 32 Fords.....so not too bad.

Can't wait!

The SAE letter was rude and made some very poor assumptions. But it was JUST words and will have ZERO affect on the legacy of Modelhaus or affect how much I will enjoy using the Modelhaus parts and kits I have on hand to use. The Modelhaus reputation is not that fragile.

I may have missed it but have we heard from Paul Fisher or Joe V/Quikskins??? They both were in Paradise area. thx

It's been a while....years....but yep.....I'd load up.

Watched an episode today........man was it getting bad toward the end. Three guys that looked like they escaped 'Clockwork Orange' tried to take over the world. In the episode Judy was attacked by a garden hose......SCARY!!

Me too.......but I had to sell my 77 Bird or 74 Matador....kept the AMC.....

Looking good to me!!! Are you going to cast it???? If you do I'll buy one and the next week someone will announce a plastic kit!!

I'll hold out for the weekly 40% off......

Nice clean good looking model!!! Nice to see it built...I worked with Sean on the decal artwork.

I bought a car out of Chicago, 46 Ford Hot Rod......used U-Ship with decent results. Do be careful......like you said....many are connected.

I have three different cutters like the one in the picture. One is the same with a scriber type blade. This works well on plastic sheet up to .030. I also have a cutter with a wheel which is better on paper and thicker sheet stock. The only issue is the cutter can wander a little on the lighter weight models. I get a lot of use out of mine.

Thanks....I'm still searching the net.....but good try
