      To continue my theme of all the gear, no idea, and to really emphasise the flaws in my modelling, this mini photo booth arrived this morning. Seems really good value, with different coloured backdrops, and seems big enough to get most models in.

          Fernando,
          you're a brave man to try that DH2 Stripdown! I attempted a Fokker Eindecker many years ago - I still have nightmares!
          The Henschel 126 is a nice kit, but the parasol wing struts gave me a lot of trouble!
          Dave

            Fernando, I'll be looking out for that DH 2, think you will enjoy that. Hopefully Dave will get over his night mares and be able to watch the build.

              Morning afternoon or evening , pick which ever is relevant .
              Mrs R ventured out into the front of Race Towers earlier this morning to find a parcel ! Luckily for me no light-fingered person nicked it over night.
              Looking fwd to using this, Pete Low obtained the same the other day.

                      That's typical on finding the part already in the box Lee , sort of thing I would do as well .
                      Just drilled the timbers for the branches, just took my time and let the drill do the work, pleased .

                          JR, did I understand you correctly, that the lowest rpm setting is 5000? What is the highest rpm? Rick H.

                            Hi Rick, yes 5000 low 14000 highest. There's no way I would use this above the lowest speed, things would catch fire.............................................. ..... Ooh there's a point:flushed::nerd:

                              Hope you’re over the nightmares when I manage to start on the DH-2 and thanks for the tip with HS-126 wing :thumb2: .

                              Pete.
                              Thanks Pete, I thought that it included the bike too, have to find a nice one and I’m aiming for a scene that could be from the Walking dead:smiling:.

                              Had a look at the instructions and lets say it’s a nice challenge, if you have some patience it will be built here, just not on the top of the build pile now:thinking:
