Bob could set up a paywall for an FTP site where we could share PDF and STL files and such. Make that a yearly sub and only available to those that sub for it. It probably wouldn't be used or needed much and the extra funds could apply to MA site Just a thought. Trying to think outside of...

I didn't intend for Bob to set up a pay wall, that was just what that other guy does. I have no problem with assisting with the site bills and making it easier on Bob to keep it going.

I subscribe to a guy by the name of "Better Bachelor" on a Rumble site called "Locals". By having it behind a paywall it keeps the trolls out and he makes enough to get by. I pay the subscription fee because there is community there and because he does good news stories about a lot of the crap...

Looks like you have come up with some good alternatives to the parts Greg. I have a porcelain tile floor all through my house since I had a water leak several years ago. Have dropped quite a number of parts on the floor in the "Hobby Shop" and found them all (even the TINY PE pieces). After...

Just went to the tip jar to make another deposit and couldn't as there were no buttons to do so.

Just pulled out my kit and looked at it. There are slots where the firewall goes. I would start with a piece of sprue measured and cut so that once placed between the sides they would be straight, then cut a piece of thick sheet to fit in the slots, and maybe have a reinforcement just behind...

Are there slots on each side where the firewall at the back of the crew compartment would be located? If so a solid piece of thick styrene set there would help a lot. Also, the upper hull could be tweaked a bit to help pull out the sides. I am still surprised that no one has gone to any effort...

Thanks Mike.

@Sharkmouth More good relevant info. Appreciate it Saúl! Looks like I have a helicopter in my upcoming line up.

Nah! I like big scale kits. 1/200 scale Titanic, 1/48th scale B-36, plenty of 1/32nd scale aircraft and bombers. I like super detailing and the bigger it is, the more super "D" it usually needs and the more I like it.

It got tooth-ified!

For me, yeah as I have access to tiny screws, BUT why go through the effort of drilling holes and finding screws when it is easier to get some wire, mod the end of it, heat it a bit and brand the "screw" into the part.

Thanks Tim! Your 1/16th scale build is what inspired me to get this one going. Thanks Gary

Saúl, they made the kit as 1/32 scale, not 1/35th so it is a little larger than most other Cobra kits. Not sure why, or what the reasoning was/is on it. Anyway, yeah there will be decals left over on it. "When" I get around to building it. Now off to build on a large half-track.

Your Falcon turned out quite nice Mark!

Turned out quite nice Greg!

I have the Special Hobby 1/32 scale AH-1G Cobra kit and it has a SEA camo scheme as one of the options. I already decided that was going to be the way it was going to be built. Thanks for all the postings Saúl!

Working tiny is our specialties Doc Alex. As a watchmaker I can appreciate the amount of fine work you have to do when saving those young lives.

Couldn't stand it so I started cutting some plastic on it tonight. With as many large sprues as this kit has I did some organizing prep work that I think is going to make a BIG difference. As I have no cats, dogs, or rodents, I am not worried about parts getting moved around before I...

Looking good Mark! You are getting a heat wave and our temps have dropped down to the upper 80's with 70's in the mornings.
