Finally! The ACS coaming is back in stock!! Here! Jack

early Cessna Citations. heck, maybe all of them for all I know. Pilots used to joke that they needed bird guards on the back of the nacelles. jack

I agree!! I just rec'd my order in 9 days.. well packed and finely detailed resin! jack

from drPepperResins.. 2 F-16D resin spines (one blk 30, one blk40) with housings. Excellent!! And 9 days from ordering to my mailbox in Nashville, TN!! jack

Good idea! But it might not have worked this time.. too many were already on it because of the sale flyer! jack

I checked about 10 minutes ago and there were 7 of those kits at Sprue.. now it's down to 3.

I know very well what the image represents. I was just checking to see if you did.

I agree totally with smithery. BTW, what does the image in your signature mean? Is that something that you are a part of or is it just a pretty picture you wanted to display?

Absolutely!!

Good plan, Darren! (It's always good to grant time extensions to the craftsman!) :lol: Seriously, you're efforts are greatly appreciated!

Me too! I just got 2 of the new ones from Sprue Bros betting that Darren will be able to get his new nose completed.. well, not HIS nose.. the Steel Beach resin nose. I've got 3 of the initial release.. two from HL during some 50% off sales way back, and another off ebay that was really cheap. Heck, I figure if I average my inventory costs on these 5 kits, I own them for an average cost of around $18 each. :wub: (only a modeler can do that kind of justification and feel good about it!!) jack

Speaking of the front end... Hey, Darren... how are the Steel Beach things coming along for this bird? Still end of Feb? Jack

has landed at Sprue Bros! Looks like enough to go around! jack

This is probably already posted somewhere.. but just in case.. I noticed last night some new items for pre-order at spruebothers.com 1/48 Tamiya F-16CJ 1/48 Academy F-14A 1/32 Trumpeter F-100D jack

Darren.. Just got the first SB sheet today.. two actually.. one to use now and the other for later! If all the rest are going to be as nice as this one, I'll be a huge SB fan! Ordered Friday, here today. Fast is a HUGE plus! Someone said you might have a stencil sheet out soon.. any further news on that? Thanks! Jack

Ditto!! PM inbound ! Jack

Grrrrrr! Man! I can't believe I missed that! Of all times to actually be away from a computer one afternoon.. <_< Jack

You probably already have the email but just in case... Goratgo70@aol.com He's been prompt on a few emails to me as well, but maybe just good timing or he's gotten busy. Hang in there! Jack

Here are the Viking pieces....

Got the Monogram A-10 & Viking pieces.. arrived Friday. Beautiful!! Jack

I think that's actually Plutonium-Nyborg. The only reason I mention it is that there seems to be a LOT of it near your home-to-be, and if you're going to deal, you don't need to be spotted as a rookie. Good Luck! Hope you get settled soon! jack

In a booth of that size, as you move your airbrush around inside, paint will get directed or pushed to the left and right side. The further away from center it goes from the cone of the fan's main draw, the less efficient the fan will be, relative to the center. Paint/fumes then rise and are pushed to the upper left and right corners of the box, where the fan has the hardest time drawing from. If you have good airflow, the fan will eventually pull some of it out, but not before a noticable amount drifts out into the room. Relative to the rest of the space in your booth, the extreme sides are p

...plus, your intakes stay cleaner so there's less to dust!

Dave.. Thanks for the info!! jack

Thirded! jack
