Miatatom

I really don't understand why folks are throwing them out. Why did they keep them to begin with?

Welcome, Vince.

Welcome Timothy! This is, for me, the best source for model cars on the internet.

Hi Marty, welcome back (just heard the Welcome Back Cotter theme on TV). I've been in that mode for a while, only posting infrequently. I have finished 3 cars that I've not posted. I'll get to that later.

Scale Auto is being absorbed into the collective, better known as Fine Scale Modeler. I guess I'll drop it when my subscription expires. Besides, I get way more information on this forum than out of a magazine.

I suggest using Mozilla Firefox versus Edge. Safe and no tracking the websites you visit.

Welcome, Ralph. Love that green! Great job!

Welcome, Roman. That's a nice looking diorama!

Welcome Dr. Dave!

Scale Auto is being combined with Fine Scale Modeler. I don't know that I care to pay for a hybrid like that.

All I can say is I hope we can keep this forum going.

What Pete said, Formula 560 Canopy Glue.

Welcome aboard, Steve!

Just like mine but it's attached to a 76 year old fixture. It's seen it's better days. ?

Tamiya.

This news really made for a bad start to the day. I'm showing my age but I remember him on Sid Caesar's Your Show of Shows long before The Dick Van Dyke show. He always looked like he was about to lose it and bust out laughing. He was one of the best ever. "Whitaker Walt" ?

Welcome back, James!

Welcome to the forum, Glenn. Anchors away (1962-1966 USS Norfolk DL-1)!

Welcome, George!

Welcome, David! It's a treasure trove of model car building know how here. I've learned so much.

I use Formula 560 Canopy Glue by Pacer. (PT-56)

My first job out of college was at the Y-12 Nuclear Weapons plant in Oak Ridge, TN. I did a lot of work in "glove boxes" which look a lot like my booth. You can find a pretty nice blast booth at Harbor Freight that's a lot like my booth. It'll be made of metal so static charges might be an issue but there are remedies for that. I just looked them up at Harbor Freight. A bench top model is $129 and a stand up is $189. I'd spring for the stand up. It's already set up as a down draft.

It's undergone several modifications since I took these pics but I made this one from 1 sheet of plywood and some 2 x 4s. It's 2' deep, 3' wide and 3' tall. Those are plastic gloves hanging down the front. Don't use them any more. Added more lights on top. It's a down draft with the exhaust running through the wall to an outside vent.

Great job! That one looks like it's ready for a track day.
