Looking forward to seeing the results! :good:

Here's an interesting short. Enjoy! :Drinks:

Got to have something to cook on that stove. Spam, beans? :good:

Bread looks good, so does the stove. Where's the beef? :vgood:

That deck has more slots than Vegas. :eyeroll: The PE really adds to the build, very impressive so far. :vgood:

Damn the martinis, full speed ahead!

Looks great, Terry, looking forward to the rest of it. :good:

So I tweaked my back at work Thursday morning, went to the chiropractor in the afternoon and he told me I wasn't to lift anything for a few days. I went home and did the ice and heat thing the rest of the evening, but come Friday morning, I was still hurting. I did the ice and heat thing in...

Bumping this because it's worth the read. To Bob! :Drinks:

I'll share a quote from Bob that he sent me earlier this year, words to live by. Gotta tell you man, do everything you can now. Retirement is never what you think it will be. The Golden Years, for too many guys I've known have been a joke. We've been retired now for 15 years. It's been good...

Wow, that's a major size difference. Nice save on the hole drilling episode. Looking forward to following along. :good:

Stunned at that news. Godspeed, Mr L. End of watch.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback. It's a very good kit and fun to build. Much more to come, thanks for coming by. :Drinks:

To your question about the styrene tires, I would think they are much better than a vinyl version. The styrene will paint up just like the rest of the model, vinyl tires can be tricky to paint and have been know to "dissolve" over time. Having the tires molded individually is kinda cool...

As promised, here's what I did over the weekend (besides working until noon and the coming home to mow grass). I fiddled around with some details and then closed up the doors and hatches with white tack for primer and paint. I got it in primer last night and went straight to paint this...

Yeah, I lost one of the metal emblems a day before a contest and had to buy another kit to finish. The gray looks good. :good:

You can still see the video by clicking watch on youtube, there's actually first episode too, but I thought the Star Wars approach to watching was fun. :bigrin:

I happened across this while looking for something else. Nice work, Rick! :Drinks:

Looks like a good plan, nice start! :good:

A double or triple layer of aluminum foil laminated together with spray adhesive might be easier to work than the brass and would still be crinkleable. Is that a word? I'd also suggest popping the door open a bit, that would help conceal the differences in size. Rock on! :ro:
