  1. I'll follow along, too. We'd have car building contests with lots of customization.
  2. You're making great use of your outdoor kitchen, Eric. And dinner looks great.😃 I still remember going to a shop for roaster chicken, processed right there in the store. Mom got everything except the head of the clucker. A lot of it (neck, back, feet, etc.) went into her chicken soup.
  3. You may want to contact a sign shop. They use stryene sheets for a lot of their work. We have one just across the street from our club and we've gotten sheets from them. And they may have off cuts/remnants, too.
  4. Looks like not much if any print artifacts. Excellent print. For sure, 3D printing is revolutionizing the hobby.
  5. Another outstanding build, Craig. 👍👍
  6. Wow, nicely done Falcon. 👍 I gave a Lego version to my nephew, once upon a time, for Christmas. We spent the morning putting it together, ignoring all the rest of the goodies he received. And this was 20 years after the original movie.
  7. Looks like an interesting build, especially as it's short run characteristics. I think your superior skill and cunning will let you turn out an excellent model. 😉
  8. True, Jack, but both (D&S, C&TS) of these now tourist lines were part of a narrow gauge division of the Rio Grande, until the 60s. I have a few videos of these rotaries in action as tourist action. Impressive tossing of snow.
  9. Another section of the rabbit hole: D&RGW had 2 rotaries in snow trains of 7 cars. They were based in Chama and Alamosa. Lots of snow in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado.
  10. Jolle, your details are outstanding and your weathering is superb. I can see why Model Warships and ION gave you the medal. Well done.
  11. You can use an external DVD player, connected by a USB cable. But yes, a printed booklet is always welcome.
  12. Shame about the decals, but your plow and tender look good. The coal pile looks very good.
  13. I'm in, too. My F-4 squadron in Germany had a visit with the Italian AF squadron of the same number, the 22nd. Great deployment, excellent home cooked pasta and an Italian white wine. Tragedy struck the next day when their squadron commander decided to do a departure flyby under the low hanging clouds and took all 4 jets into an Eifel hillside. We were all destroyed by this disaster. A very bad day. R.I.P.
  14. Sounds like it was more that a basic cataract remove and replace. Good luck with your recovery. Now take two tots of rum and call us in the morning. 👍
  15. Nicely done on that oily floor. Great effect.
  16. yep, boxtop/instruction sheet colors should be taken with a grain of salt. Good references are the stop for that. I accumulated a decent library of RAF and Luftwaffe a/c, but now many are out of date, thanks to a lot of good research. Your paint job looks good.
  17. Very good to know about the color matching, Kurt. Thanks.
  18. Nice crisp side wall. Very nice build.
  19. brushing the varnish leaves an uneven coat, compared to more complete airbrush spray. Painting a second coat should fix it right up. Good luck with the water testing, OC.
