    Tool Time - DSPIAE Stepless Circular Cutter Advanced Kit - Review

    It has the same issues. I looked at the photos and the measuring grid is NOT under the pointer. That is for sure. The loose fit on parts is probably similar. There is no reason the fit on the parts I pointed out should be that loose and sloppy. The finish on the parts and the fit to the...

    Latest Acquisitions Revisited!

    These are 1/4 inch and larger than I wanted. I am using one each of 5/32, and 1/8th. You can hear them click, but they are smaller and seem to work just fine with the Vallejo bottles. Also the NEW Vallejo bottles seem to seal up better than the older ones. They also have a zip strip at the...

    Interesting Saúl. I usually just stick with Louisiana as it has flavor and the bite is just right for me at this point.

    1/48th SdKfz 234 Puma - (Finished)

    As I have been on an armor build kick lately that has continued to be productive, I will continue with this Puma build. According to the box this is a "new mold" from Italeri. Which means it isn't old and worn out, though with Italeri who knows if it is even close on accuracy or not. It will...

    Latest Acquisitions Revisited!

    Plain steel and acrylics are not a good mix. I bought some stainless steel bearings in two sizes off of A a while back and have been adding one of each size to my Vallejo paints. They are working quite well.

    1/35 TRUMPETER BTR - 50PK APC IN THE MIDDLE EAST WARS

    Both are interesting. My guess is which of the guns will be easier to obtain?

    V2 A-stoff trailer

    If the weight of the tank is too heavy, cut it in half, measure the thickness of material removed with the cut. Dremel out the inside to lighten it and then add the thickness of plastic at the cut and glue the halves back together. Also, I think I found a photo of this particular tank with a...

    1/72 Arma H-75 A1/A2

    Go for it Barney! I use an Optivisor for just about everything around the house. Reading drug labels, building models, looking at small :poop: that I used to be able to see a couple of inches from my face. Thing is, I have used the Optivisor since my late 30's so no real difference except that...

    The gloss coat already toned down and blended the colors a bit. Looking good Bob!

    Decal masks

    No Paddy, you just get sucked into the hype like many of us. Recently I tried to buy some #00-90 threading dies to make some parts for my SdKfz 251 kit(s). Turns out the site was a scam site. (REALLY?! FOR small off the wall TOOLS?) Anyway I will never see "those" items I am sure, so I went...

    Tool Time - DSPIAE Stepless Circular Cutter Advanced Kit - Review

    That is why most of the fixes are just minor changes that actually should not affect costs at all. I intend on modifiying my tool and when I do, I will post what I actually do with it. The most difficult part will be drilling holes through the extremely thick hard anodized surfaces. The tool...

    Tool Time - DSPIAE Stepless Circular Cutter Advanced Kit - Review

    I bought this to cut out small circles of clear plastic to put over the instruments on my SdKfz 251 kits. It works and cuts quite well, HOWEVER, it is a pain in the can to make an accurate sized cut. I posted this review on the seller's site and am not sure they will ever post it up. I rated...
