Procopius, Cookenbacker and CedB are even more awesome in the flesh, although, CedB seemed somewhat relaxed slimmer and taller than I had imagined him in the flesh! Must be the selfies giving false perception. Apologies for slinking off early chaps but, an evening on my Counties highway standby awaits me. Another week, Box On Strickers

Any idea at what time you will be rocking up to the WSM chopper muse on Saturday?

Happy to discuss setting up a modern day 'comet line' for disillusioned colonists Strickers -
Your modesty and sense of humour deem you more British than many natives I know! Box on Strickers

A female detectorist eh? Not sure if the humour will translate, but google The Dectorists on the BBC iplayer, may give rise to a titter. How do you get the finish so dust free? Box On Strickers CU@SMW

Hello Jamie, Very successful exercise, intending to use this on the fuse of my SH Sunderland MkV as seen at Hendon. Should look good on a dirty white ground. Top tip Stickers -
Preferences noted, but what about lovely warm flat beer? (Mwah har har) Box On Strickers

Standing shoulder to knee with Winston, nature provides the canvas, nurture provides the paint and subject. He's so young that test him today, he will favour the elephant, test him tomorrow he will favour the mule, but he seems to have a well developed sense of who he is already, better than high IQ in the long run.. Keep persevering with the Lanc, 'small steps, Sparks'. If Bill's buying the first, can I offer a second? 154 Sleeps to Tell Box On Strickers

Special Hobby 1/72nd Sunderland Mk.V!!

Not using the trained mouse on this one then? Clearfix windows I assume If it just clipped together it would be snap fit model and not a challenge, (a bit like the coracle - see Barry Welsh is Coming on youtube) Nice progess Box On Strickers -
Oh Lordy, circular gorgeousness. Inspired tool fabrication with the mini cutters too. Box On Strickers

Just noticed that in their coming soon section Airfix have a phantom listed with a price of nearly £150, if this is not a typo, then can we expect a 1/24 scale Toom for 2020? Hopeful Strickers

Hello Jamie, the cutting mats a and b have been ordered, and the effect looks dead convincing, should work for the 'walked on' look by masking the centre of a panel and raising the rib area with a couple of layers of undercoat and/or aircraft primer and metalic paint. Box On Strickers -
Sorry Ced, truble with my worms again. Thanks for the info, about to cash in the Brownie points for a mini lathe. Keep up up the good work Box On Strickers

A quick trawl of the interweb gives this 2BA is 4.6 mm x 1.8 mm. 4BA is 4.3 mm x 1.5 mm. 1/4BSF is 10.4 mm x 1.5 mm. In 1/144 any of these will be half the width of a gnats laughing gear! Box On Strickers

Ok Ceb, A few things: Did you get to the St Maria Gorge? Lot pf pretty flowers there, or there were in 1996 bit of a trek tho. What's the torque like on the mini? Does it have a speed controller? Would making intake tunnels on a Sword P60 qualify for the brownie points to get a lathe? The nose ring on the Ligthning looks the biz, (another Ceb recomendation...the pen thingy) with the speed of your builds I'm not surprised..no time for hanging around (see what I did there?)
