Brother Bear, I have been using each for years. I use 1/2 oz. Solo, less waste. As for the pipettes, I have one dedicated and labeled with a sharpie for each solvent. Lacquer, enamel, water, windex, etc. That way not cross-contamination. For paint measurement, I use a dental mixing tool. Dip it.
A drop[ is a drop is a drop, whether it comes out of a pipette or the edge of the above tool. For our purposes the volume of paint and thinner from each dispenser is the same.
Just sayin'. You know, for a friend. Sincerely, Mark

Great work, Oliver. You never cease to amaze me with your applied research. I would hate to be the guy dragging the tool chest over that uneven ground. I know you said your figure is designed, I'm curious as to if he's scanned.
Thank you. Sincerely, Mark

Some of the finest, Oliver.
Long Island H-34. Accidently came across their barn way out on the Island while wife and I were Vineyarding one Black Friday. Gave a few bucks to them over the years to help them restore.

Another fine display of a Masters talent.
Don't forget to fill in that sink hole. A Judge's flashlight will find it for sure.

Nice start. I like those spring-mounts on the tow eyes. Good job with the tarp. Where did you get your resin bolts?
Thank you.

Martin asked that I post in progress photos of this build. Martin, your wish is my commando.
I started this build about 25 years ago and worked on it for about 5 years before I came to a stopping point. I picked it up last May and finished it about a week ago. Images in no particular order. Photo intensive. Thanks for looking.
Sincerely, Mark
