Scrap Parts Box (Vintage)

[tomv1987]

I just wanted to post some pics of my "stash" of leftover vintage model parts and pieces. I think these bits and pieces are a treasure trove, and will help me with parts for any scratch-building i need to do. I'm glad I never threw it out!

 

This is also an opportunity for me to "test" posting pictures into the forums. 

 

My dad's old tackle box, which I used for parts storage:

 

 

Scraps, bits and pieces and various other parts... mostly 1/48, but also 1/35 and 1/32...

 

 

Lots of figures.

 

 

See anything you recognize?

I find I get fed up of bits after a while and throw them out! granted there have been times when I have wished I kept a part days after throwing them out!  lol.

These are all surviving parts of kits, or extra parts, that I have hung on to since I was a kid. I also bought some divider bins to semi-categorize the parts (but I have yet to do that yet). This will make things easy to find when I need to scratch parts.

Better save these parts as they will come in handy now and then. I once sorted a large amount of spare parts into

usable and not usable.........You guessed it, I threw out the wrong box. Oh well.
