Fantastic? Quite right, to say the least. These don't look like paper or plastic, they looks like tanks!
Have you ever made one of those Russia BMP vehicles? I am sure you could give them great justice.
An excellent thread, and fantastic results. Thank You very much for including us on your journey.
Good thing these days, you can find some inexpensive 123 blocks on Amazon and Ebay. The pair I have, I made from A2 tool steel, heat treated, and ground as part of my Precision Machine and CNC courses while attending a local community college using my GI Bill. Most cheap import 123 blocks are precise enough for most industrial applications (unless you are doing nuclear/NASA grade tool/instrutmentation machining operations....), and therefore will work with most paper models. I remember one fellow student had a cheap set that he tested on the stone table, and they were pretty accurate compared to the more expensive Brown and Sharpe 123 blocks the school had.I need to get a set of those 1,2,3 blocks, not an expensive set, just a cheap set to make 90 degree bends, and weight stuff down.
