And it STILL  looked like a power station from a slightly dystopian future..............?  ;D

My thoughs exactly! ;D  ;D  :thumbsup:

Well if you consider what they are for..... of course they will  ;D

Had a good start to the days with several scores..

A 35th scale  Hobbyboss  Chinese PLA ZTZ 96A Main Battle Tank

And some quite interesting tools I can wait to play with....I got a set of Alexen fine scraper plates 1 and 2 and one which if it works will be superb for some builds ..a Alexen gun barrel scraper.
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Phill, is the gun barrel scraper to get rid of seam lines? Or for re profiling? (I suppose it could be used for both)

Impulse buy at a hobby shop whilst idling away time waiting for the other half.

Whilst it is aimed at IDF there is a heap of nice stuff that is useful elsewhere like the gas cooker, Thermos, transistor radios,  tools, boxes and a super useful Rt-524 radio.
Even the ration boxes are in plastic

That looks like an excellent accessories set, BT! :thumbsup:

I have just spent a ridiculous amount of money buying this;



But the kit images just looked so-o nice!





I really hope it's worth it! :angel:

It will be slightly whiffed by adding a hook, as a carrier-capable RAM Air Arm aircraft.

Wapiti looks nice  :thumbsup:  Just wondering where the struts are in that image ? They are the parts that would worry me if 3D printed.

Snagged an Airfix RAF Recovery set on eBay.  Now I need to do the Bv P.202 ad the cargo.

Rick it's to get rid of the seam lines after gluing without ending up with a flat spot ..it's got different profiles for different sizes of barrel  ;D
Very neat 👌 😄

Not a kit as such, a pair of jumo auxiliary Me 410 jet engines, for a future project. Made by Lonewulf models, via ebay.

Sounds good. :thumbsup:
I remember making flat spots on various barrels (and fuselages :banghead: ).
Nowadays I use a Flexifile or a turned barrel.
