Ok thank you Dan I will be sure to look into this and thank you for the rapid reply 👍 lummy06

Hi guys how are you all? I went out into the modelling room as I was trying to clean up before I can get back out to the bench again in January.😁 And then I regrettably looked at the Lancaster in its former glory it looked great!… until I looked at the rear turret to which I found that a family member decided to push the aircraft against the wall and has somehow not snapped off but bent all four of the rear turret barrels (I will attach some photos). I was wandering if anyone would know if there is a way to re-bend the turrets back straight. I was thinking of just grabbing each individual turret and bending it back but I fear that I will snap them off. thank you for your time Lummy06

Thank you @GRK it’s a great help I will look into them on YouTube and your sea base -Lummy06

If I could spare some peoples time I would like to know how to do a sea effect to put my RNLI Severn class lifeboat in so it looks like it’s going through rough seas. any help is much appreciated

Anyway less about me how are all of you guys doing?

I believe I sure will thank you

Ok thank you for all your help I’ll do that👍

Ok cool good work on that! HUABAN 10PCS 5W 5 Watts 51R 51 Ohm 5% Metal Oxide Film Resistor https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08MKYMMVZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_i_7BRDD05JHSA4JD638VRD?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 it says I need 51 ohm 1/8 watt resistors. and I have found them believe they are correct??—————^

Yeah okey thanks again I’m using this video: I think they used 6 led per strip being 3 strips that must mean 6 resistors. the video didn’t make it much clear

Ok thank you Steve I’ve just found some with built in resistors. can you do me another favour ( sorry) are these okey to be safer with as I don’t have a tester?

Ok thank you I will look now I’m on Amazon 🙂

Ok thank you what or how do I work out voltage drop?

Hello everybody I would like some help from someone who is either an electrician or has built an led diode parallel circuit. I’m looking to make good and cheap lighting for an aircraft hanger I’m soon to build. I am looking to buy these… and I’m also looking to buy this so it is powered by the mains… However I don’t know if I need some kind of resistor as I see a lot of circuits have these. On the other hand,I didn’t know if I didn’t need one because the plug allows 12v into the circuit (I believe that’s what 12v DC power adapter means?)and the leds are 12v so are they fine to not have a resistor?? thanks Lummy06

Ok thank you I’m sure I will be able to pester you enough!

@Troy Smith is this the build you have shown everyone here? I’m interested as I accidentally bought the wrong scale aircraft hanger (1/144 not 1/72) and am wanting a hawker hurricane and this seems to fit both criterias.

@Paul Bradley I agree so many diverse ways yet some easier than others. I shall try them all

Oh sorry. thank you though @Paul Bradley I am now a bit wiser🤣

Thank you I’m one of those young ones that wants to be different than other youths and I enjoy modelling and my dad I think was glad about my passion for this hobby in fact he was the one who 3 years back said he built a spitfire when he was young when we were In hobby craft looking at models and I picked up a revell spitfire and that was the first model I built ( with his help of course). I will keep you guys up to date once I’m able to start again 👍

Ok thanks👍 It’s a great help

@Paul Bradley sorry I’m new to the forum what do you mean? What is “thread”?

@cmatthewbaconthank you I will keep that in the front of my mind for when I get another car set 👍

Sorry, @Ade H you are correct I did forget to mention that. I’m planning on weathering some of my aircraft my Lancaster and Apache. I was also looking at weathering my raf bomber resupply set which is 4x4 vehicles. Thank you I will look into all of the books and people you have suggested.

I’m going to have to recommend Apache by Ed macy
