Welcome aboard Dave at #29.

Well Im not an expert here but having had airbrush’s now for 36 years and using them. I know my gauge will sometimes stick at about 15-20 PSI when I shut down and drain my air lines. Sometimes it’s just a bit of small debris (rust flake) that needs to be flushed from the line. So I refill and re-do my shut-down procedures until it goes to zero. This cycle can sometimes take 2-3-4 times to break whatever is free. Problematic yes but in the end the gauge always goes to zero.

Hmm … my eyes did not see your name and I scanned the list twice.

Agreed but there is a very nice example of a Bee striped M4 Sherman used as Range control vehicle. https://www.flickr.com/photos/mechanicman87/48328117187

There are three names not on the list of sign-up’s. John masters, mackem01, and yourself. This puts the grand total at 29 only one more needed to get into the bunfight ?

Hello Martin … from somewhere across the pond and a bit of the continent from you in Chicago USA. Im mostly a military aircraft builder, though will take on the odd piece of armor or the occasional ship now. Been building since 1979 and nothing really makes me want to stop. I’ve slowed down in the last couple of years from health issues but thats about it. Dennis

Welcome aboard John. Those all sound like great choices.

G’day Laney … from somewhere across the other pond from you in Chicago USA. Im mostly a military aircraft builder, though will take on the odd piece of armor or the occasional ship now. Been building since 1979 and nothing really makes me want to stop. I’ve slowed down in the last couple of years from health issues but thats about it. Dennis

Ooops I should add we get basic kits here from Airfix and Hobbyboss. However they don't include paints or anything to build the kit ? In overseas case’s how would you adapt the build to accommodate the lack of true starter kits in the USA ?

Oh god I thought when I saw the words hot tubs someone was going to mention @trickyrich’s or @modelling minion‘s Budgie smuggler’s. I’ll get me now.

Well since You already know about the other build. You can add me to the list as I still have a # of kits.

Ive suggested this before and it didn't seem to strike any resonance with anyone. I hope you can maybe do better than me VP.

Don't feel too bad. Every wildcat martlet build has issues with UC fit. Particularly if you attempt to mount them post paint like I do. I just don't trust that I’ll not snap one or both off. In fact on my recent Martlet build I did partially break one side after mounting it. Good thing C/A works wonders.

Welcome aboard Ive added you to the list’s.

I have added you to the list, Thank you again for joining. I will update everyone on the sign up list periodically so everyone knows whats going on.
