  1. Hello Mike. Welcome to MSW
  2. Mine was a preorder and came with all the extras.
  3. Measure 3 times, cut once 😄
  4. Both sides glued in. Now I just need to figure out what to do about the star at the top. Not perfect but I'm happy.
  5. Thanks for the likes and thanks Grant! I've made a little progress on the trail boards: Here is one side dry fit in place. There's still a bit of cleanup to be done before I call it good but overall I'm happy with how it looks.

  7. Hello and welcome to MSW 🙂
  8. I've decided not to use the kit part. I tried painting it and just didn't like the result. So, instead I'm cutting out the trail board design. I have one of these and I'm using #3/0 jewelers blades. I also have this image that I got somewhere (don't remember where). I printed the image onto avery full sized label paper. I cut it down to size. I debated on what material to use and settled on .040 thick Evergreen sheet. I tried initially to use a 1/16" basswood sheet but the wood was just to soft and kept breaking. After muffing it up a couple times I ended up with this. A bit of a tedious task but not too bad and just needs to be cleaned up a bit. And dry fitted to the model.
  9. Hi Jim. Welcome to MSW
  10. Looks very nice!
  11. Welcome to MSW. I think the Lady Nelson is a good kit to start with.
  12. Looks great to me. The 3 planks are battens maybe?
  13. Hi Mark. Welcome to MSW
  14. I suppose it depends on what you are cutting. I've been using number 3 blades for most things models.
  15. not sure why that happened. a temporary glitch maybe?
  16. I tested it with him and he receives PMs as expected.
