  1. Ok im still pretty new here and want to delete an ad after ive found what ive posted for. How do i go about this? Where is that magic key on my computor? Thanks for your help. Drew C.
  2. Nice idea on the cardboard boxes. I was looking at some we have at work myself. There pretty beat and dirty but might contact the tool company and ask for some store samples. Afterall were selling their tools? LOL! Looks really nice. Im designing an area now for my hobby. Thanks for sharing this idea! Drew
  3. Ok bought a Badger 175 Crescendo today at Michaels. Used the 50% off coupon and now looking for a compatible compressor. Any ideas what to look at. My budget will be under $200 range without a coupon. Drew
  4. I really like #2. How did you do the wood look? Nice build. Drew
  5. Thanks everyone! Im heading out tomorrow to look for some stuff at yardsales. Scored some stuff at work today in the old we dont use it racks and pegboard area! Thanks and keep it going! What you all like about lighting? Floresent or regular if Sun not avalible. How about one of those cool magnifyer lamps? Drew aka Shootennany in S.C .
  6. Goor question, other than as a kid setting models on fire I dont have an answer. Im guessing it wont work due to the structure of plastics in general. Hope someone with more knowhow answers you. Drew "Shootenanny" in S.C.
  7. I really like the dremel stylus it has a handle which really helps control,if you can find one check it out. I will chheck this out too. Thank you! Drew from S.C.
  8. What are you going to run the brush off of? C02 tank? Air compressor? Well, ive got a 60 gallon 5 horsepower tank in my garage of the house im selling? Was thinking of going a bit smaller but might just move it to my new house? I restored a few real cars and it did a good job with my SATA guns. HVLP was my favorite. Might be a bit overkill for a hoobby but its paid for. Drew from S.C.
  9. Thank you all. Ive painted a few real cars using SATA equipment and love the HVLP gravity feed guns. Great informtion here. You are all really helping me to narrow it down. Ok ive set aside $125 max for my airbrush. Thanks again! Drew from S.C.

  17. Maybe? Well might just buy a couple of kits. Last time I bought a case of models it turned into 7 cases, but that was another time from a Western Auto store. Ah thanks for the memories! Sold them all to Hobby Heaven I think? Drew from S.C.
  18. Thank you Mike. Well im just a bit over 21 so I need this advice too! Looking forward to getting back into this hobby. Drew
  19. Good light is a must, I agree. Looking online at some possibilities now. Magnifying glass light sounds good too! Drew
  20. Hello all, well after many years of not building im getting back into it. Is there a list of items avalible online of what to start with? Im talking about paints, brushes and sizes, glue types, tools etc. I basicly have not much to start with. Have not built anything other than real cars in about 20 years now. Other than prices being more now and technoligy where do I begin? Any threads or online sources to read up on? Hoping to buy some items with a starting budget of $250 soon. Thanks for your time. Drew aka the new old builder guy in South Carolina.
  21. Thank you! Thats a good thread. Have a great day! Drew
