  1. Rapper rhymes with the somewhat apt last name of Thomas Crapper, the founder of a London plumbing equipment company in the late 1800s.
  2. Move to try to get to know a woman these days, and half of 'em run screaming that you're stalking or harassing them...but they're usually the ones with non-human hair colors anyway, so no biggie.
  3. I will certainly miss seeing your always-inspirational world-class work here, and will most definitely look for you on those other forums.
  4. Conformity must be maintained, and the beatings will continue until acceptance is universal, and everyone is happy about it !
  5. Thank you sir sir. I really have more fun reworking garbage, for some odd reason.
  6. Thanks, but no. I found the one I wanted, and a few others thanks to the responses here. But seriously, thanks anyway.
  7. Pot likes to call old kettle black, every time he gets the chance.
  8. Clearance numbers on bridges are oppressive.
  9. Watched pots never boil.
  10. Thanks Mark. I figured if anybody would know them all, it'd be you.
  11. Not as far as I'm aware, but modifying a Revell LaSalle into a reasonable facsimile shouldn't be too hard.
  12. Thanks Carl. I have an old AMT that should be the same. I'll have a look.
  13. A very stiff blade will work on soft metal like brass and aluminum. For harder metals, you'll need wee nippers with hardened jaws, and a very fine diamond file to remove nibs on hard material.
  14. Detail wiring to spark plugs on models often looks like garden hose; contrary to some opinions, size matters.
  15. Capsized isn't the same as screw-top sized.
  16. It's much better with bourbon.
  17. Probably ought to say "don't use this for a screwdriver" on the package, right?
  18. It isn't too late until you're pushing up daisies.
  19. Found a reference link, and found that most of my kits that had these things have already moved West. Also found one, all I need, in the old Lindberg-boxing of the AMT '34 Ford pickup.
  20. I think I'll see if this one can't make it to the show Nov. 5, one way or another, too.
  21. Yeah...since I have 'til the end of the year to finish the Stude, I think I'll see if I can drag this one across the line by Nov. 5.
