Thats strange because they show it and supply it with the stand but not separately Here...

Thanks Saul, thats the single speed one but to be honest thats all you need because the variable speeds are really close together like 500/600/700 /800 , 500/600 is really too slow for very small drills anyway. Only disadvantage is the chuck is actually a 2.35mm collet so you need 2.35mm shank...

No , Dremel are pretty useless for drilling especially plastics, way to fast. I use this...

Work has started on my MFH Matra MS11 F1 car ........or at least the engine :) Before i could get going there were 80 holes to drill in the above castings, mostly 0.8mm thank god for these electric pen drills :)

I am expecting a conveyor belt of museum quality, show winning, spectacular builds here :-)

Nice video Bob, some real classics there.

a lot of those are still flying here with the Shuttleworth collection :-)

Hmmm. Very mixed views on this. You see replica Ferraris and replica Ducati's but the reality is they are not Ferraris or Ducati's and this will not be a spitfire. Just like the Ferrari built with a 2ltr Toyota engine, a spitfire with out its key component Merlin is not a Spitfire or even a...

As someone who has been chasing the holy grail of chrome paint thats works for years this looks very much like all the other products, Revell spray is the easiest as its straight from the can with no primer. Molotow can be sprayed or brushed and is on a par with Revell. Products like MRP work as...

Last week i highlighted a Pocher kit that sold for £100 https://www.easyliveauction.com/catalogue/lot/4ab0cf6d09bf2cf8a5ed7dd8500cac60/0af8d24542e81eb9357e7ef448a6646f/antique-modern-household-furniture-effects-house-c-lot-134/ This week it was listed on Ebay and made £200...

What a crazy world we now live in...... My Matra Simca F1 car arrived from Japan today from Model Factory Hiro. It cost me £390 ($527 USD) delivered from the factory. Usually these models are sold out pretty quick but for some reason this one was still in stock. I could have bought it here...

Its a balance between grip and rolling resistance/power transmission. I think the key point in F1 was the introduction of aero dynamics in 1968 which produced a lot of down force 1966 Lotus F1 with no wings or spoilers and narrow tyres. above 1970 Lotus F1 with wings and fat tyres. Of...

Very nice tim, i have enjoyed following this thread 👍

I think i am on the secret list of models for sale trouble makers :) Not a company i would do business with.

Yes , looking at the tyres its obviously a small car from a support race and not F1 like the other two.

While in-between builds i was looking through some web pictures for 1968 pit stops like you do :-). My thinking was my next build would be an F1 car and while F1 cars today are clinically clean and they are built and maintained in a surgical environment, back in the day i used to go to Brands...

The Bentley wheels are pretty close to the wheels needed for the Italeri Fiats , The Italeri ones supplied are not even near correct :-) I used Bentley wheels on my mesophiles and the cutaway GP i built.

The wheels are from Unobtainium https://unobtainium.digital/alfa-wheels.html If i remember i had to alter the hubs a bit but no big deal

The problem with RC is its almost impossible to get the speed to scale. If you move a real aircraft far enough away so its the size of a quite close model ......the real plane will appear to be travelling at a fraction of the speed at distance of the RC thats quite close. You could see this in...

How about a Percival Proctor Stuka :cool: strangely they didnt use it in the final cut of the film and instead used Radio control models.
