I’ve always said that it’s not how you screwed up, it’s how you recover! I haven’t screwed up anything today. No doubt because I’m sitting in my easy chair sipping my morning coffee. But give me time!

Fun stuff! Now you need to build the van made from pot!

Didn’t need them!

Drove this one off the workbench this morning. Full set of photos when I have the opportunity!

I like it! Great project!

Maybe this is what you saw? Quite ironic that unemployment is taxable income! It shouldn’t be!

Or dropping exactos!

Yea, a full length one with multiple cup holders

I wasn’t expecting this! Very cool, interesting and unique!

Who build models

She’s growing grass!

Looks good from Pennsylvania! I’m still working on my Valiant speedster conversion. I went clear thru areas of the floor to get it to sit on the chassis! How did your chassis line up with the rocker panels? My body is much wider than the chassis

Where did you hear unemployment is not taxed for 2020? https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2021/01/13/how-being-unemployed-in-2020-could-lead-to-a-surprise-tax-bill.html I just read that it is...

Facebook warned me that the listing is far away from me! So I guess I can’t get there in time! ?

Trees without roots?

You bought the wheels from Model Roundup but did they disclose the manufacturer or method of manufacture? If these are 3D printed, the maker should be able to adjust the size and give you the bigger wheel you need. Or someone else may be 3D printing these?

Looks fun! Due to the rarity of the Modelhaus body, I’d keep the configuration of doors, post etc as it is. I grabbed one of these at the last Modelhaus sale. I don’t have an inspiration for mine just yet.

Imagine if Chrysler did sell all the Turbine cars! They’d still be million dollar cars today.

Big fluffy omelettes!

David, I get a little shake in my right hand. Try steadying your hand by resting it on something. A guy who did a lot of hand lettering recommended a beam bag or substituted a large bag of M&Ms since it will form to the ball of your hand. Hope this helps!

Just some pix I saved today... South America no doubt..

That is the 3M Painters Blue I use. I cannot tell if you’d get any better results because I don’t use Krylon paints.

Very important to take the parts off the sprue and clean them up. Get rid of the mold lines, ejector pin marks and where it was connected to sprue. I do spray everything. I use the little Dixie bathroom cups for a lot of things, including paint stands. If an item is heavy, just stack a few cups for ballast! As said above, I mount things on toothpicks. I will drill small holes where it won't be seen. I will mount with blue painters tape onto a tooth pick. I also pin a lot of things together, so I drill and mount on pins, which also serve as handles for painting, see item in front in my picture. I'll mount an item on a pin and leave the full length of it for painting, and cut it to the length I need right before I use it. I also mount parts to tooth picks with white glue. The residue you get on your part may be the tape you are using. I use the painters blue for this.
