KevinM Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 She keeps moving forward.The base is a far cry from perfect that Birch is some hard wood to the router but it will work for ME for someone else I have to do it again,besides I am out of Birch now.I am going to seal the pic in clear film and and using a spray adhesive attach to the base. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Martin, I guess Kotare have taken "shake and bake" kit building to a whole new level. Leave the cement and paint close to the box and this is what happens automatically. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to do the Revell 1/48 B-1B in a similar display except with cruise missiles coming out of the bomb bay. Never got around to it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottsGT Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Another “proverbial bench” project…. Or how I spent my day yesterday and later today. Duke Energy has lowered our lake about 4’ under normal, so getting down to our floating dock is kind of dangerous trying to balance on an 8’ A frame ladder while stepping on a dock that moves under your weight. So for this summers activities, the wife had tasked me to build a set of stairs so the grand kids can safely access the lower dock. Now I just have to figure out how to get these heavy things down to the lower dock. Going to take 4 or 5 people to lower them into place. steps have not been attached yet, probably saves 60-70 lbs, but I have to finish the hand rails today. Funny thing is, I paid a guy $1600 + materials last weekend to replace the front steps on my house. After this set of tiny stairs, that was money well spent. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
