I've got this one in the pile so I'll be following the squirrel too! Carl -

Roger's Large Scale RAAF/RAN Research thread
BlrwestSiR replied to Artful69's topic in Modelling Discussion
The original release does, along with SAC soft metal landing gear (not recommended that you use those). This is the one I have. Carl -
Roger's Large Scale RAAF/RAN Research thread
BlrwestSiR replied to Artful69's topic in Modelling Discussion
Rog, I've got the Kinetic kit with the correct tails and resin intakes and burner cans for sale at the moment. Big question would be shipping to Australia from Canada. If you want to PM me I can try and get an estimate for you. Carl -
well the Nationals cost me a bit more than spending money
BlrwestSiR replied to Clunkmeister's topic in General Discussion
That's so disappointing to hear. -
Thinking of a new build, but different.
BlrwestSiR replied to Clunkmeister's topic in Modelling Discussion
Definitely out of left field with that one Ernie. For a moment, I thought you might say CF-105. Carl -
What is on your bench right now ? Share a picture :)

They're 1 1/2 ton jack stands. The car is half that. Maybe. With two passengers. And a dog. -
A Jaeger for me... ...brushes for my boys.

Ryan, I'm with Harv. It's probably Tamiya's best 1/32 kit. Harv, I have to get this one fixed first before I worry about finding the other skate -

BlrwestSiR replied to Martinnfb's topic in Modelling Discussion
Most of you know I've got a car that pretty much qualifies as an LSM... After 12 years of ownership, I felt it was due for a timing belt change. Now I know why most garages wouldn't touch it. Got some great help from a good friend and my neighbour too but it looks like it'll be a two day job as the crank pulley is stuck on tight. No more mid engine cars for me Carl -

Really nice work on the engine Ryan. So hard to make black not look stark. Carl -

Thanks Rob! This one made it over the finish line. Although it took a couple tries on the weathering. -
I'll have to try that on my F-4

Well at least you can store it with the wings off if needed. Beyond that, it looks fantastic. Carl -
Is that the Black Box cockpit? I've got one for the E in my stash. Either way, it looks good to me. The one in my CT-133, that needs some work.

2021 IPMS USA Nats in Las Vegas, Nv.
BlrwestSiR replied to Clunkmeister's topic in General Discussion
Well I asked my wife what she thought and she said we can entertain the idea. She's been to Vegas previously but much prefers the desert versus the strip so at least there's something for her. If thing don't change, I'm sure my boys will be happy to go with me to the show. They're always happy when they go to the LHS with me. Which would mean one day with family at the show and one day on my own. Carl -
Show us your IPMS USA Nationals Haul
BlrwestSiR replied to Clunkmeister's topic in General Discussion
That's crazy and not someone who should be in retail sales. I had the opposite happen at a Honda dealership once. They had a brand new Acura in the used department as they had closed their sister Acura dealership. It was a current model so out of curiosity I asked how much and was told $26K for a $33K car. I said "What?!! $26K are you kidding??!!!". The sales guy replies "Ok, $25K then!". I should have bought it. Carl -
Well, 2021 is my 50th so maybe I can work something out and go. Especially if it's near the beginning of the month when my birthday is. Never been to Vegas either so that's another reason. Carl
