LOL - that was a good one.

Funny you should mention this. I lost a small part from the Academy 1/48 P-47N this morning. The part was one of the two pieces that glue to the cockpit floor - the part that the seat frame fits into. It is less than a quarter of an inch (6mm) long. I found it in my gray carpet by vacuuming and then dumping out the vacuum canister. Note that my vacuum is bag-less, and it was empty before I tried this. It wasn't too difficult. But I have tried the masking tape trick too.

Here's Charlie's image, rotated.

This happens very frequently to me, and my standards aren't that high. I've come to realize the even after 14 years back at the hobby, I'm not that great at it. Getting back to your original question, I save any parts (including decals) that I think might have use in the future (or that someone may request on a hobby forum like ARC) and toss the rest.

What store did you buy that at? I don't think I've ever seen that brand. Stacey

Although not great for brushing large areas - and off the top of my head, I don't know of any paint that is - you can brush paint Tamiya just fine if you thin it first. I stir the paint, then let a few drops fall from the stirring stick into the lid from a soda or water bottle. Add a drop of thinner, mix and you can brush just fine. The reason most people get frustrated trying to brush Tamiya paint it is they use it straight from the bottle.

Bump, with price reduction.
