      Hey Allen.........welcome to my world and BTW, may I just say that stuff looks normal size to me.........normally use a saw and a miter box to cut stuff that BIG! :tongue-out3: Oh.......and those look like "snack Crackers" for the carpet monster.

        Lee, I've always loved these old Macs. Be perfect w/50s gooseneck trailer.
        Allen, I finally have a Bailey in my scale, but haven't built it yet as it waits for expanding US WWII engineers.

                He's got at least 3 square inches there. Plenty in my scale. Here's what's on my bench. Detailing an old Athern GP38-2. Just added re-railers (unpainted yet) to the road switcher.

                    The KV-1 fell together so it's all lined up ready for the black gold that is Mr Finishing Surfacer.

                    I'm down to my last few drops of the stuff and it's seemed almost impossible to get hold of for weeks now, along with the clearcoats I use from them. Probably stuck on a boat somewhere, or in one of those containers that fell into the sea some time back!! :smiling5:

                          I prefer modeling over eating any day until I’m to weak to hold the glue bottle

This is the third kit I have built from ICM recently and I am most impressed. Just have to add on the 384 missing track pins now! :sad-face: :thumb2:

                                Thanks Allen. I took a few days off in case I had any side effects from "the jab" (a few of my colleagues were quite ill), but was right as rain so enjoyed the unexpected bench time instead

                                Purple thing is a dust extraction sanding block, the longest of this set:
