Looks stunning in the sunlight Richard.

That looks like a great show. Thanks so much for posting your pictures. I recognize a few of those faces and builds.

Glad you went to GSL. Say "Hi" to Tom Geiger, Randy Ditton and Joh for me please. Take tons of pics too especially the Bob Peeples Cobras display for the museum. -
I hope all you guys have a great time and post lots of pictures including what you can get of the museum.

Best of luck on your surgery Tim. We'll all be here when you get back at it but no need to rush, we can be patient. Your recovery is more important but only slightly. LOL -

Now that right there is awesome, I don't care who you are. So what are the plans for the cross piece? That will really be interesting. -
Thanks guys. Randy - the white part of the ,faucet handles is actually styrene rod shaped by turning them on my Dremel Stylus which was drilled out for a small piece of wire fitted into a turned piece of 1/16th " aluminum tubing. Then that combination was then slipped onto a small straight pin. The same method I used for the shower handles. More to follow. Stay tuned.

Glorious stuff Tim. I'm in utter awe of your skills. So one more to make for connecting to the tranny? -

Me too Scott. Looking forward to seeing how those are done because you know they'll have to be functional. As you know, I've done functioning ones by hand in 1/25th scale but to see these machines ones will be very interesting. -

Man-oh-man are those nice Tim. Just like Quicken loans, these are engineered to amaze. Any way one of these can get cast in resin before you proceed? -

Wow - this is a masterful piece of solid aluminum. This car is going to be quite heavy when complete. Be sure your tires aren't hollow or they'll go flat over time. LOL -
Progress has slowed since DSC although I've been working in small doses. I can't glue the bathroom/galley side until I do the sink faucets which I've been working on. The wardrobe cabinet side needs the clothes made and put on hangars before permanently gluing in place. I've found and painted another pair of shoes for the closet and they're ready for mounting to the floor. Stay tuned,

Now you've done it, you just had to go and do some plating too. Its not enough your soldering skills are not of a human, now you're plating too? I think you've stolen all of John's minions and have a few of your own who do some miraculous work for you. -

You bet Art. Glad you're now a ProTech vendor and I was able to see the products before purchasing. I've heard his stuff is the best out there and now I'd have to agree. Your Stephanie's Rose, Corvette and other builds were flawless and exquisite masterpieces. I always enjoy viewing your creations. -

The awesomeness continues Tim. Great update and I'm thrilled that you don't step away from this for very long. -

Very nice pictures Raoul. Thanks for posting. -
OK now that DSC is done, I can post some of my latest bench time sessions' results. The plumbing for the shower is complete along with the floor drain and installing the commode. I made a little 35mm camera to go next to the coffee cup. DSC was so much fun and the builds on the tables were amazing. I got to meet up with Randy D, Nitrozilla, Jeffs396, blunc and a host of others from here on the forums. So glad we were able to hook up.
