  1. Is bullying new members fun? If so, I might give it a try!
  2. Have it your way. It's your lid. But be man enough to be criticized.
  3. Whoa, that's rude. Didn't you sleep well or are you constipated? Post count doesn't mean anything. A few helpful posts are way better than 3000 BS comments The ears still look ugly; the buck line shouldn't be visible
  4. This is indeed a vald question. I don't think this was ever discussed.
  5. Nice build! But I agree with Wayne; trim the ears a little.
  6. Just remove the return edge. It will bend without the need of any heat source.A heat gun is really the last resort.
  7. I guess I just wanted to be on the safe side But it isn't wrong to give it a little time
  8. i second that. I used that stuff a lot when building my styrene prototypes. But it takes about a day to cure.
  9. Agreed 100%! And thanks for all the fun you you bring to this forum!
  10. Don't try to fool us! These are new lugs! J/K, of course.Top work! What did you use to fill it?
  11. What Mathias said I have to admit I had to look up the word "luscious" This is kind of my new favorite adjective. Thanks!
  12. Don't know them, but they're most likely recast. Stay away from the 'bay in general.
  13. How to Write Good by Sally Bulford (with additions by anonymous others) 1. Avoid alliteration. Always. 2. Never use a long word when a diminutive one will do. 4. Employ the vernacular. 5. Eschew ampersands & abbreviations, etc. 6. Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are unnecessary. 7. Remember to never split an infinitive. 8. Contractions aren't necessary. 9. Foreign words and phrases are not apropos. 10. One should never generalize. 11. Eliminate quotations. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "I hate quotations. Tell me what you know." 12. Comparisons are as bad as cliches. 13. Don't be redundant; don't use more words than necessary; it's highly superfluous. 14. Be more or less specific. 15. Understatement is always best. 16. One-word sentences? Eliminate. 17. Analogies in writing are like feathers on a snake. 18. The passive voice is to be avoided. 19. Go around the barn at high noon to avoid colloquialisms. 20. Even if a mixed metaphor sings, it should be derailed. 21. Who needs rhetorical questions? 22. Exaggeration is a billion times worse than understatement. 23. Don't never use a double negation. 24. capitalize every sentence and remember always end it with point 25. Do not put statements in the negative form. 26. Verbs have to agree with their subjects. 27. Proofread carefully to see if you words out. 28. If you reread your work, you can find on rereading a great deal of repetition can be avoided by rereading and editing. 29. A writer must not shift your point of view. 30. And don't start a sentence with a conjunction. (Remember, too, a preposition is a terrible word to end a sentence with.) 31. Don't overuse exclamation marks!! 32. Place pronouns as close as possible, especially in long sentences, as of 10 or more words, to their antecedents. 33. Writing carefully, dangling participles must be avoided. 34. If any word is improper at the end of a sentence, a linking verb is. 35. Take the bull by the hand and avoid mixing metaphors. 36. Avoid trendy locutions that sound flaky. 37. Everyone should be careful to use a singular pronoun with singular nouns in their writing. 38. Always pick on the correct idiom. 39. The adverb always follows the verb. 40. Last but not least, avoid cliches like the plague; They're old hat; seek viable alternatives.
  14. You can use some putty like bondo to fill the hole, then sand it flat. Some use super glue mixed with baking powder. HTH!
  15. Und auf KEINEN Fall bei Ebay einkaufen!
  16. Ausserdem sind die MovieFX sehr schlechte Recasts und aufgrund des dickeren Plastiks sind viele Details verloren gegangen.
  17. I told you it'll work Sure, it is time consuming, but it save a lot of elbow grease
  18. I don't know much about Calgary; but "tropical" doesn't come to my mind...
  19. Too bad I don't have access to nomex gloves. It would be worth a try.
  20. That's what I thought But I have a solution in the back of my head. Please tell me what I think. Apply some silcone caulk on the area where the hand guard would go. Spread it thru the fabric a little. Let dry. Now you have a non fabric surface where you could glue the hand guards.
  21. Has any one ever tried to glue the rubber hand guards on Nomex gloves? Did it work? What did you do? I know how to glue them onto rubber gloves, but I don't know about others. Thanks, Karin
  22. Yeah, don't troop in it. To quote Indinana Jones: It belongs in a museum!"
