    Apologies

    I hope this makes you smile. This is my little dog when she was really little, and Sylvester when he was really big. They loved each other, he would tolerate the dog doing stuff like this.

    A memorial to my mum (A BRTC25 Thunder Fighter in BSG livery).

    I really like that one, nice job!

    Apologies

    I can’t like this… I’m SO sorry. Our fur friends are more than animals. My little dog is here beside me, where she always is. Tears…

    Bandai 1/144th Millennium Falcon from SW, TFA

    I can’t ‘like’ that. Good luck on the search. Hopefully the new home will be even better.

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    Well, how about this? My shaky hands and scissor cuts make the rubber cleats look ‘used’. I think I can do this. CA glue on the pads before forming the track. That piece is one of the ‘stretchers’ that I printed from another kit. Also, one headlight is done, and installed now. (A large paper...

    I had planned to use some EVA foam on the former tracks, and may do that to these. Cutting a zillion little strips would be easy enough to do. Thanks for the idea for these!

    Wow, those would look good lighting the thrusters too. Oh, maybe that is what I’m looking at. My Rocket Surgery is kinda rusty.

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    Thanks! No updates yet. I have been doing some detailing on the cab of the truck. I want to finish it before installing it. I plan to build it with open ‘hatches’ in the windshield area, and have added one of the hatches to the driver’s door along with grab handles. Also, a real work saver for...

    Thanks! ;) There is a nice gift shop in the hospital next to the one where he is now and my wife called them and arranged to have some things delivered to him. There are still good people in this world. The lady in the gift shop said they normally don’t deliver to the other hospital, but she...

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    Thanks for that! I now realize that’s what I am doing and that makes it even more fun. Things have been pretty tense here the last couple of days, we have medical issue with our youngest son. He will be 38 tomorrow. He will be spending his birthday in the hospital 250 miles away from us...

    A little more progress. The bed is fabricated and ready to install. I got a couple more wheels done too. Current status: The cab is just posed as is the bed. I need to finish the cab and install it, and a couple more support beams for the bed before attaching it to the truck. This truck...

    I just printed the extended bed and some diamond plate to cover it with.

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    Well, again I got confused. It appears that there ARE enough track parts in the original PDF to make the tracks. For some reason I thought there was only half… whatever. The tracks are going to take forever. Sigh… But, I have made good progress. I made and installed two more cross members in...

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    I decided to make the wheels into ‘real’ wheels. I cut styrofoam circles on my hot wire cutter and glued a tire and the sides of the wheels to one. Then I cut out the track parts and discovered that there is only half enough to make a complete belt of track. So, I have created another page of...
