Tempted to go straight in with the Tamiya Honda that i couldn't face last time :-)

here it as twice the price and 10x the quantity. Shop about i think you will find it even cheaper than this...

Right i can wrap this thread up now with a definitive answer . The tubing i was looking for is silicone rubber. i bought some red/black and clear and its exacly what i wanted. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/167279070797?var=466954593563 This is a horediously expensive way to buy it at $6 a meter...

So this is my Matrra MS11, a 1968 F1 car from Matra Simca. Like all MFH models it threw up some challenges, but to be fair they really are quite ambitious and will test you and sometimes they will win. My only real problem here was fitting the nose cone which quite frankly doesn't fit. With...

All i would say is since buying my electric pin vice i have never used my manual ones. its much easier to get an accurate hole if you are not having to twiddle the holder as well as the bit, more likely to be to size and less likely to snap the bit on sub 1mm sizes. with models like the MFH...

I did search and found this A replica of a 15th Century ship which Christopher Columbus used on his first expedition across the Atlantic Ocean 500 years ago has docked in Eastbourne. The 95ft (28.95m) Nao Santa Maria arrived at Sovereign Harbour on Thursday and the public will be able to tour...

One for Chris, passing the harbour today and to my surprise , after 500 years the mayflower arrived back to get another load of migrants for the US.....seems to have grown a motor now as well

Rear wing on, some electrical wiring added and tidyed , roll bar fitted. Just some rivets to drill into the body and some wing mirrors to fit. Wheels will go on last as i dont like the idea of them, being quite heavy, hanging on the suspension while i am still picking this up. Fitting the...

No i dont like these 3d print models, i would have to remove all the moulded chains and nuts and bolts, ropes and so on. To much work :-)

I was standing on the cliffs only yesterday , its a bit cooler on the coast. 100f inland. A sign of the times that there is a permanent chaplin patrolling the cliffs now to talk people out of jumping.... about 25 people a year jump They built an emergency runway at RAF Manston for the US...

And you even feathered oner of the props :)

Every now and then you come across a model that beats you. It either doesn’t fit, its detail wise all wrong or you heart was never in it and life is too short. If the manufacturer can’t be bothered to get it right , why should I ? You know the sort of thing. Well for me it will always be the...

Hi Terry I think you will fit right in here, we are a small band of people from all over the world who wanted to show our work and chat models, ask questions and have a laugh but couldn't find these options on offer on most forums or face book . Love your wide range of topics and the extra...

yea i have their wire core in several sizes and the MFH clear.

The wheels are an absolute joy The tyres are screen printed with a yellow Dunlop , the rims are CNC turned alloy and the centres are cast in white metal. I sprayed the centres semi gloss black, let it go hard then polished back to bare metal the raised spokes.

Hi Saul, i wish i could remember, i doubt it would have been Tamiya because all their in box products are available as accessories. I doubt it was a motorcycle as i have about 3ft of it. it wasnt any of the italeri cars i built so its just possible it was the Revel e-type. not much else i have...

Hi Terry. Good to see you here, how did you find us :) I have some of this stuff. I am pretty sure its silicon rubber This 1mm OD x 0.5mm ID and is exactly what we need however it came in a kit and i cant find it sold separately. it is elastic and if i was to pick up the above by one end, it...

I want it floppy, it means that if you use it on a car as wiring or a plug lead etc it sits naturally. I just want to know what it is so i can buy some mor e :-)

Another way of describing it would be imagine having a small gold chain, it acts like that. I have found some in my box and i took a short video of it and its something daft like 35mb :)
