I traded an old RF-4E for this book with Bruce:

Now, I am ready for the Merit International kit (or Hobby Boss as the agreement seems to have ended) once I find it cheap enough!

Panzer Concepts shows what great service is by replacing the damaged parts and, better yet, redesigning them so the damage will not occur to others...

While I only needed one, I was sent two of the large casting.

This is the third volume written by Piotr Butowski and published by Harpia:

While not really aimed at modelers, it is perfect for those researching load layouts.

The Harpia three volume set is an expanded version of this two volume Polish language set published by Lampert in the 1990s.

Yes, I found a complete and unused sheet from Hi-Decal Line, an excellent company with accurate instructions.

Well although my modeling has dropped my buying hasn't. Just got a Mosquito Pt 1 book, Do 335 book, and Fi 156 book all from Valliant publishing. The Mosquito Pt wont be released till July. Also got the new Takom AML-60 and M-47E/M kits. Have ordered decals to make the M-47 into a Somali one to go with my Somaliland T-54.
Sorry, no pics. Just have not had the ambition for anything lately.

James, that is some neat stuff! I am awaiting the delivery of a Tamiya M48A3 that I got for $17 dee-livered!

I need to stop buying and start getting some "infrastructure"/tools though. I am in need a of a PE bender. Note that I have any PE to bend, I just don't have the bender!

Bought off a trade and sell group on Facebook:

I should've researched the spitfire sheet as it lacks the eyes found on the cannon of the shark mouth scheme:

I hope so! I had just gotten the money to get one when he stopped making them and sold the last one! I hate being so close and yet fall short. I'll be watching for one.

I traded a duplicate MiniArt D7 for this:

Another order from Lots-of-Models:

Both should have been 1/48th but I do have two Tamiya 32nd scale kits so I won't be returning it.

The idea for a new bender was something he was pondering out loud, may have been just that (pondering). :idonno

It most likely wouldn't be the original, from what was being discussed, it was a different model. I can't seem to recall which thread it was discussed under. Ausf? :coolio

I have picked up a few goodies over the last few weeks. Some are rather interesting, some are just refill items for scratch building projects that I will be working on down the road.

If anyone wants some more info on these just let me know and I will post up some review threads.

Nope, that's not the most recent discussion. I commented in the thread I'm referring to. It was either earlier this year or late last. :idonno

Oops forgot these.

The TV tuner card actually seems to work better than the tuners on my regular TVs. I actually get the NBC station now. The other TV's don't even show the channel. In addition it will allow me to record stuff off air.

Advanced Search results in nothing more recent. In any case, Jeff and I discussed the Fender Bender as the items sold have a VERY Looooong warranty so Jeff had parts to repair them. However, Ted was the machinist so that was the rub. Back in 2011, I asked for a Fender Bender on behalf of a friend and was unable to get Jeff to build me one with those parts. Customer service at its best. I still have that email.
