Spoil sport from Pete there , arh well lucky I have one, only problem no gas.
Anyway went a bit mad ( NO REMARKS PLEASE.) and have had a bit of a spend.
these have arrived .


Got the above 2nd hand from Models for sale, perfect condition , all unopened and for a good price £ 11. 50

These aerials are great, one problem the aerial top section has to be sanded to fit into the base, and there is only about 2 mm entry depth.
Also have on order.

I like the way they printed the “MAQUETTE A MONTER • MODEL KIT • etc.” upside down on the lid (Though not the English disease evident in the Dutch version of that text.)

John,
nice haul! - ..............have any of them individual track links? - am I detecting a mild whiff of masochism? :thinking:

Dave , yes !!!!!!!!! But I am determined to do them . One has the normal set up, top run, bottom run followed by 4 at each end. Read one review where the reviewer said they were terrible and he couldn't get any sag. Had a look to night at the mouldings, very clean, and on the armored car plastic tyres . Price wise about £8 for the car.

Jim its a beautifully made ab, what I love is the adjuster for the flow, just gives that perfect control.

Graeme, really is a great one, I can picture the Tank by passing a burnt out truck or car. Food for though indeed.

-- used it already to test attachment of a etch bumper to a jeep and very glad to say it works very well.
UV light has to see the glue to activate it , so glue is at edge of plastic and metal where it connects , not between the two pieces
