Oil? I didn't find any on the track tools I got, but those were individual, not on a runner like this. Run them though the ultrasonic cleaner I bet they will be fine.

[quote="moon puppy" post=1Run them though the ultrasonic cleaner [/quote]

If you do, only use water and some dish washing detergent.

I was informed I damaged my M32B2 conversion by running it through my ultrasonic cleaner due to the chemicals used (Simple Green with a drop or two of Dawn grease cutting detergent, and some Windex. Returned the items and didn't get a replacement. nice parts, just not for me.

Few things came yesterday and today. I thought the wheels and tubes came with the kit, but I was wrong. Now to find them.

A quick little update. These are my last purchases

This is another one I was eagerly awating



and I bought this one with the intention of trying to modify it to a gasser.




This came about after buying a Hot Wheels gasser for my daughter. Thinking it was rather cool and after doing a little research online, I thought it might be a fun project for a change,

Found these



as well as some 4 point seat belts from eduard. I'm looking at a set of resin headers and a pre-wired distributor as well.

Well just ordered some Ushi burnishing fluid , dashed line masks and fine wood grain and some Scale 75 paint from Last Cavelry. Give this stuff a try as Matts likes it so much. The wood grain is going to be for Roland. That should be interesting to do.

I hope you will like it James, check out Uschi's site for tips on how to apply the decals :)

This one showed up in the mail today along with what was supposed to be the canopies for my Me 262 build. Turns out someone put the wrong canopies in the bag labelled Me 262 and I got some Me 109G canopies by mistake. :bang head

Anyway, looking forward to building this along with my Lancaster.

Any chance of a photo review?

Well, I spent my money even before I got paid for the models I sold! Typical!
:rotf

These came in October... I still have an order from my favorite eBay seller from Hong Kong on the way:

One of each color...

Rather than ordering Bronco's M-24 (I probably will anyway), I wanted to see what AFV Club did:

Aside from their regular poster...

Someone has taken a cue from Chukw!

Was I really disappointed with this one!

Never enough Russian stuff!

I blame James! :whistle

I got this because it is essentially a captured 40mm Bofors as sold to Poland. Just in time for the First Blood Campaign except, one sprue was heavily warped so I need to see if I will be getting a replacement.

The last Alpha Jet I built was from Fujimi with Daco Production decals for a bat scheme.

Now to see if there are decals for this scheme...

Of course, I fed my softskin addiction. No, no civilian schemes for this.
