Gotta Love the old Ju52.... I have one of these in the stash... (Doesnt everybody?) and thought I'd build it up as the one that the USAAC flew in South American

ps... good to see you back

 

[sacktime]

Houston we have a problem. There was a "Minor" fire in my basement after one of my fish tank lights caught fire, Right next to the stash. So long story short, I will be back ASAP on this, right now I need to get the house cleaned out and get everything cleaned professionally. There was no major damage to anything edxcept the stash was burn to a crisp.

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you have a good inventory so your insurance can replace them for you. I lost a bunch of kits and references in a flood in 2009 (which my insurance did not cover) so I can empathize

 

[sacktime]

Well,My insurance doesn't cover Jack except for all of the claning. So ill be replacing everything myself.

Sorry to hear of you mishap . Makes me wonder about my aquarium ? :hmmm

On the other hand I was reading a few days ago on another site that a builder's basement was flooded and would have to be gutted out .

Hope too much was not lost .

Phantom,
The problem was worked out to be a melted plastic fire from the cheap plastic light mount i was using to hold the light up until I could get my good one reworked. The soot is all over the house, on the bright side, at least I know that my AC works!

 

[phantom II]

Ok . I have a high intensity hood ( not fancy though ) and it came with metal brackets.

The other thing is that I have always insisted on tempered glass for the cover . Never though of a fire though. :vmad

[sacktime]

Either had I. I have a different theory than the insurance company. I think it was yes the low quality build but, I think there was a short of some kind in the circuit that set it off

 

[phantom II]

Not surprised . They usually err to the side of deny-ability when they can.

Never had any problems over all these years but it's never too late for a calamity :fencing

Did you loose your livestock ?

[sacktime]

I unfortunately not only lost most f my fish, but one of my cats as well, he was sitting near the fire wen it broke out, and died of Carbon Monoxide poising a few hours later. He was always the curious type... Thats what made him a great modeling buddy, always looking for something else for me to start building. RIP oliver

 

[phantom II]

So sorry to hear that . Don't even like loosing any fish

[sacktime]

I do believe that I will do a tribute build to him soon... Once I get my house put back together.
