new here

[dmartin1]

well,my names dylan and saw the site and was totally interested in this stuff as a hobby.

im 15,have nothing but time on my hands,i work on actual cars helpiung restore them etc.

im a real handyman,i can work on and fix anything you put me up to.

ive done models when i was real young and didnt know much,but now im intrigued with them.

i am wanting to make a diaphram thing.

they just amaze me.

in the meantime i like to ride dirtbikes quads etc.

welcome aboard dylan

its always nice to see younger kids staying out of trouble and actually doing something cool

you'll find a ton of good people here willing to give you any advice you might need

having said that, dont take this the wrong way, but i dont think its a good idea to build your own diaphragm. those kind of things are really best left to the professionals

i have no doubt that you could make an awesome diorama though, but the whole birthcontrol issue is not something to mess with

alright, thats enough picking on you

you have any models to show ?

[RodBurNeR]

welcome! what kind of cars do you help restore?

this hobby is full of surprises and especially when you are new to it.

what is your first model to build?

HAHAHA Dylan, Diorama not diaphram I guess we signed up around the same time? (I know dylan from an ATV forum) we got to talking about diorama's and I guess he was more serious being interested than i thought! I ran across this forum hoping to find a place for tips and tricks on how to rust out cars etc. and I have to say I'm LOVING this site

I want to see some pics of the models you've done! I'm a total noob to this and am wanting to get into this as well

as for vehicles he works on he has a really cool 67 Chevy C10 with the rare small rear window that he's working on

Ohhhhh diorama! I feel better now. 15 is a little early to play with them thangs.

Dioramas are cool. Me and a buddy used to make our own garage scenes out of big gift boxes that I guess were used for coats. The cardboard was heavier and we'd cutaway 1 end and maybe another side. We made window frames from construction paper, tire racks from sprue, engine cranes too.

The stuff was way crude as compared to what people build now, but we had hours of great fun with them. I should do another just to have a place to park cars as I work on them, line up sub assemblies, etc.

im 15,have nothing but time on my hands...

Wouldn't school and homework take up some of that time?

[B-dub]

he's a home schooled over achiever he'll do like a weeks worth of work in one night rofl (FREAK)

I'm a home schooled UNDER achiever.. I do a weeks worth of homework... in a week ...........most of the time...

but trust me it gives you A LOT of free time lol especially when everyone is in school all day when homeschooling takes like 1/8th the time that it takes to sit in public school.. you learn the same amount but without wasting all that time going to classes and hearing rambling of everyone else.. LOL

Dylan guess what! after wasting all that time yesterday trying to get new paints etc. (Walmart and K-mart dont stock any anymore!?!!?!?!?) I get to go to the hobby shop tomorrow! (it's an interesting drive so I wont be making it often) I'll look and see if they have any cars I know you'd love... if they do I'll get it!.... and use it to attempt my first junker j/k
