I am leaning toward the Hi resolution resin printers. You might want to check out my 1/16th scale Pak 40 build

Welcome to the forum Mark. I am an old time draftsman that migrated to PCB cad back in the 90's (circuit boards). For the last 20+ years though I have been doing watch repair for a living. I still use Canvas to do line drawings and create my photo posts. Back in the 90's and early 2k's I used...

Paddy, I have found that different brands and types of CA work differently and have different properties. Lately I have been using the Bob Smith brand medium (in the purple label and cap) that I bought at the local hobby shop. First off it doesn't outgas and make the white frost around it...

When LBJ was Pres, I went to downtown Broken Arrow to the Ben Franklin. They had a 3 foot (ok maybe 2 foot) wide wall shelving unit with model kits on it. I remember getting the Revell Memphis Belle, B-24, PBY, and Dam Buster kits there as well as several 1/72 Airfix kits. At the time the...

I do tea and have multiple ways of heating water. It's a guy thing to have back ups.

Where ya going Bob?

I will try sometime this weekend, and we will see.

It's a 9 1/2 hr drive for me and even though my brother lives in KC that is a bit much for a short weekend.

I got in the new M3 kit from Andy's. It looks to be as good as all the other kits that Andy and Das Werk have had Takom make over the last few years. Though it does have one minor thing that could turn into a BIG problem if not dealt with. As I have no idea how to actually make this into a...

I am pretty sure this is a new mold made from an original kit pattern. My guess is that the original kit was a "Fit the Box" kit so who knows what scale it was.

I saw one of the original kits built up really nicely at Wonderfest several years ago.

You can make new lines (like of text) and drag another photo to the next line. I usually leave a blank line in between. If you look at @Duke Maddog posts or mine, you will see multiple photos posted in line. Just a learning experience, and once you get used to it quite easy.

Thanks for the info post James. Interesting in that I never really paid much attention to the tail band markings before.

I had to do a new water heater last year. A month or so ago the controller on it went south and quit working. Mfg sent me a new one no cost. Called the people that they recommended and got raped for $300 by a guy that took 2 pairs of pliars and replaced the controller in less than 10 minutes...

Typo monster strikes again. I fight with it all the time.

Keep up the good work Mark!

Bf 163? Have never heard of it before. So I looked it up on Wiki and there was only ONE built as a prototype to compete with the Feisler Storch. In the end it cost too much and they went with the Feisler. SO, There is a kit of it?

Luckily, I am still doing the work thing and due to what I do, I will be able to do so for a while yet. I have dropped my buying a bit to stuff I will want to build and have been building some of it lately. I am loving the 1/16th stuff but will still be choosy about what I get. I did get the...

DUH! That's what I was waiting for Saúl, :bigrin: Take a piece of wire about the right diameter. File down 2 flats in the end so a part sticks up to make a screw slot. Heat the wire and press it into the part where you want the hole. Take a sharp knife and trim off the styrene that...
