Would anyone happen to know someone or some place where I can get some jack stands, jack pads for the wings, common trucks for weapon deliveries to the aircraft for the CRL's and even the fuel tank or conventional bomb bay racks perhaps? Stuff like that I can put on for a static display? I know someone was building stuff like that on facebook, but Ive long forgot who was doing it. Any assistance would be great, thanks!

More 3D printed goodies arrived today, with more on the way. Also started laying out blueprint panel lines on the wings for scribing next. Havent touched these in a few years...

I found them quite by mistake the other day, and feel lucky to have found them because I wasnt looking for them, nor do they pop up on a search for B-1Bs. Found out he watches this thread too, so he at least lurks around...

That's interesting. I haven't seen the dispensers or wing glove parts before either. Looks like the seller doesn't have any at the moment.

you have to click on worldwide in item location to see his inventory, he isnt base in USA but UK. I had the same issue.

Im in Canada, so maybe that's why. I don't see an option for World Wide.

try that and see if it works

its an option on the left side of the screen for filtering results.

Weapons - only have 6 at the moment. Need 2 more for the mid bay, then Im probably going to fill the aft bay with JDAMs. Still looking for info on the CRL 4xGBU32 / 8xGBU38 loadout. Also, I am "attempting" to rescribe right now the upper surface of the mid fuselage....and HOLY CRAP is everything on the original model just OFF. 95% of the details are missing , and the 5% of the details that are on it are in the wrong position, so I have to have a come to Jesus moment if I want to continue down that rabbit hole or not. One side of me says do it, the other side says itll be another year before I can start assembly again if I do...its THAT labor intensive. I might do something in the middle and just scribe in some missing detail and delete some details that shouldnt be there.

I'm hoping to God they aren't as brittle as the met details parts...I really need to get back to working on mine soon. Got a bunch of JASSMs for it that I need to finish painting as well as the rotaries.

Reskit stuff is fabulous quite tough so no brittle issues in the truckload of stuff i already own from them.

superb details as well and print quality.

AAA standard.

got a bunch of their stuff for my Takom Apaches, I know they're good kits. Met Details stuff is super brittle though and gave me a rough time with the rotary launcher. Still havent touched it since my last update.
