maybe its a loo turret with the frosted glass an' all... -
Gpatch is all good to me. Great stuff and not stingy either. I used the p/e ones on my Biff to good effect. They were purchased to use with the unusable p/e flying wire. But I'm using a mix of 1/48 and 1/32 Gpatch on my Gotha. And , yes your bush league if the line isn't continued straight through the turnbuckle.

Finally , scientific validation for The Glory Hole.

What a 11,391 model collection looks like
krow113 replied to BlrwestSiR's topic in General Discussion
I live in B.C. So I am interested , but wary , very wary. The last guy in B.C. who bought a huge collection still has most of it because he refused to pass along the benefits of his windfall. I went and bought one kit at the cash price of $60 , about $20 off retail , for a used kit , Then the goof tried to "estimate the tax" !! On a cash sale! He wanted to add it on ! Relating this story to my IPMS crew , as a heads up warning , resulted in his keeping of the kits and sales dropped off quickly. I would try to find an honest person , good luck there , to facilitate the sale. -

How much for the lot? Big problem for the family to get rid of this . A lot sale is the best or hordes of cheap -ass' show up , looking for deals , wheedling over 2-3 dollars for a kit or two. Lots of peeps are prepared to take advantage of other peeps lack of model knowledge. Anyone who has sold kits at shows will know exactly what I mean. Allow one or two 'friends' to cherry pick the lot and your left with a lot of $1-$2 models nobody wants Get cheap , arguing over $3 dollar kits, and you'll be stuck with them! I would break them down into separate lots of the same kits and get rid of them on ebay , should only take a few years... -

Stop the press!! New Wingnut Wings Lancaster on the way!
krow113 replied to Clunkmeister's topic in Modelling Discussion
Good news for any modeller. Getting upset isn't worth it. Keep that crap over there... I have a HK Mossie I traded for a B 25 kit. The earlier pics showing the upper wing profile differences tells me why it was traded off. I'll never build it. If this signals a move into WW2 for WNW then it also signals the quality , packaging , detail , etc , that comes with their commitment. All good and thank you WNW! -
My answer should be clear now.

I used my "The Chopper" 3 times , producing 3 different cuts , examining the tool shows some flaws in the mechanics of it. Mostly the blade deflecting within its own height. Having spent that money , and 15 mins of work , to immediately and permanently shelve the tool I think that a very definitive answer will be needed prior to my purchasing the RP Toolz offering. An update or repair set for The Chopper would go a long way...

Yes , very sad day. A genuine master craftsman , earmarked by his willingness to share his work and knowledge.

http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235016614-a-gotha-returns/ I see photoretard has 'allowed' the pics back here. You can see the ongoing Gotha at the link or on ww1 aircraft forum

I wish I could update this but the pics are not available to replace , some have gone missing, so its hard to find the right ones for each post. Management can delete the thread if they wish to.
