All week long at high noon all the steam whistle blow.. Very cool. I have a 1950 M series John Deere that I just inherited and have no use for so I'll probably look for a buyer at that show..

sfhess Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 I went the nearest hobby shop to my home for some Tamiya paint. Got the paint and a Revell 69 GTO kit. Also picked up a few jars of Model Master paint for $1.50 each. Also decided to check the Local Michaels since it is near that hobby shop. All they had in the kit section was a couple of Revell pirate ship kits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add, the Amazon facility is literally 5-7 minutes from my house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straightliner59 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 I've been wanting a set of WW collets for my lathe. I came across this deal on Ebay. Sherline sells the collet set for $106, as I recall. For $100, I got the collets set, and 20 assorted end mills, a set of Sherline center drills, a 3/32" chucking reamer, and a couple of other specialty bits! I couldn't pass it up! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily nothing was damaged and with that kit the windshield fram has to be added during assembly. I guess once you pay they don't care afterwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're talking about the AMT '50 Ford convertible kit, the reason for the windshield done the way it is in this kit is that there is or was several different roof options when this kit was new. #1 was a stock height convertible windshield and soft top up or down. #2 Was a chopped top convertible with a half top option. #3 This was also offered with a stock height roof and the Victoria Hard Top with no B pillar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
