    I think it's called Crayola Air Dry clay here. Check out a Michaels store if you can't find it in Walmart.

    Alan, you can also use kids brand modeling clay to hold your figures while spraying them. I think it was Crayola brand.

    I think the hand vise would work. It comes with a set of metal pins/rods to insert in holes to hold irregular shaped objects. I have that hand vise and another different style both work well for holding small things. Are these figures metal or resin? Watch the MicroMark demo video on that webpage
  25. Jack12477
    I'm a neophyte like you but will be happy to share what I've learned so far.
  26. Jack12477
    That's okay! There's no penalty for Senior Moments 😇
  27. Jack12477
    Would this Universal Clamp from MicroMark work ?
  28. Jack12477
    I'm in!

    Looks like the tire gnomes snuck into your stash. 😒😠 But I do agree with Ken's solution.

    In anticipation of possibly doing a diorama I did pick up two cliff rock face rubber molds by Woodland Scenics. Incredible detail in these molds.
  32. Jack12477
    It's under consideration! Big issue is where to display it. The ship models already take up all the display space. I have maybe 30 completed armor vehicles stored in plastic containers because I ran out of space.

    Stopped by the Hobby Lobby store today; the model kit area had a sign "All boxed kits 40% off". So I browsed the shelves, mostly cars, way down on the lowest shelf were 5 Tamiya Walker Bulldog kits. Sale price after discount was $13.19. 😲 Picked up another kit, was very tempted to buy 2 but resisted the temptation. So Walker #1 will have a companion tank. 🤔

    Happy Birthday Craig from a real old fossil
  35. Jack12477
    Yep , that's the tool, 2nd one in from left is The Bug, one on left is the Mini. Prices, even in British pounds, is close to what they cost in US. ($36 vs £37, close enough)
  36. Jack12477
    Yes they did. They announced awhile back that they intended to retire the end of 2023 and were not selling the business or their patents. Shame because they had a reasonable low price for a quality product and delivery in US was very quick. Can't speak for Canada or UK delivery. Update : I just checked Their site , it appears they might be reincarnated soon. See banner at top of their web page. Bookmark it if you want.

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
