  1. I just recieved my ANH E11. It is AWESOME!!!! Andy
  2. Terry I am working on a template for my Helmet tube stripes myself. I went to Wallmart and bought a stencil paper. I am tracing the lines on it and using a ceramnic cutter to cut out the lines. I think that a "Tube Stripe" stencil is an EXCELLENT idea. Andy
  3. Try these sites. They can ship them to you. Andy -----
  4. Forgot to mention. Make sure you line the AP forarms at the front. Glue one side at a time. Let sit for a day or two then do the other. Make sure you you use tape and clamps. Andy
  5. Before I "But seamed" my AP forearms together I taped them together with "Blue Painters tape and tried them on with my black "Underarmor" top to see how the fit was. This way you can see if you need to add shims. Also, Some people glue one side of the forearm and use velcro on the other. I used a "15 mm" strip on mine. I first had wider strips then I removed them and cut them down to "15 mm" Your choice.
  6. Hello, Here is the Humbrol Paint conversion chart from their website. ----- Andy
  7. That what I was afraid too. I was wondering if you can spray the black rubbery paint that some people spray on the inside of the helmet to make the resin stronger? I have not used that yet? Andy
  8. Terry, As usual very detailed. I will be using this when I start on my pipe kit. My biggest worry is is some of the pieces breaking after use. E.g. Inserting and removing from holster and accendential bumps against walls, drops, counters, etc...
  9. I had this figure with the others as well. How many times I would play with them. If I could remember the holster was a piece of black string. By looking at the figure I wonder if this is where the FX helmet looks came from? Andy
  10. My feelings the same! Also, by having the picture books trading cards, magazines looking and reading them. The images stuck into my head. Also Star Wars was one the few movies that you kept going back to see again and again.
  11. Jessie, The Hockey suspenders are a excellent idea!!!! The 3m plastic hooks I may frown upon. The reason why. I use them during Christmas time to hang up green garland around the house. Sometimes the hooks break. Imagine if the hooks break during a troop? Joanne frabrics or Michaels sells fastners like this parachute buckle. http://www.joann.com/ Andy
  12. Rolf, IMPRESSIVE.......MOST IMPRESSIVE my Friend!!!! Andy
  13. I got mine E6000 at Joanne Fabrics. Here is an alternative to snaps. I have the screws and snaps that go on a Hockey helmet. I am using those for the snaps. It is adjustable. Andy
  14. Michael, I am proably going to order a parts kit and a defect sterling from the place you mentioned. I want mine to be a Dummy non firing model. Will the original front and end cap fit? Andy
  15. Looks GREAT. It needs the power wires from the cylinders to the counter. Andy
  16. What type of paint and colors did you use? Andy
  17. Syl Jr! That is impressive. Do you remember when we were up 3-0 on the Isles and lost game 7 at home 1-0 to a goal By Ed Westphal? My heartbreak was in 82 when we came back to tie up the series against the Isles and lead 3-1 in game 5 only to lose on overtime when the puck hopped over Norris Trophy winner Randy Caryle. Did you know that they are going with a different Darker blue jersey next year? If you like the current one... Pick it up while you can. Do you remember the famous Edmonton Pens bench brawl where Kim Clackson kept coming out of the Penalty Box to fight Dave Semenko? There is a highlight snippet on youtube. Andy
  18. I like that Marker you have. I have to pick that up next. Andy
  19. I found this on the Humbrol web site. It is a conversion chart of Humbrol paint to other brands of paint. ------------ Forgive me if this posted elseware. Cheers. Andy
  20. Try this link if the origional one does not work. http://www.hengstlertimers.com/ Andy
  21. Try this link instead. http://www.hengstlertimers.com/contents.htm Scroll down till you see 478 type. You need Acrobat reader to view the files.
  22. I figured that. It is hard to get a 400 model with a metal case. I just missed getting one earlier. I have a M38 scope. I am getting a Dummy Sterling. The Counter is hard to come buy. for $109.00 plus shipping it is as close you can get! Plus it is a Henglester! I have two resin ones that I wil be putting on my pipe builds. When I paint them black it will hard to tell unless a person is like one of us here. What also ticked me off is how many first shots of the game The Flower let in and how many long clean shots he let past as well? We outshot them as well with their shots being under 20! They shut down Ovechkin and us. Hats off to them! They deserved to win. How long have you been following the Penguins? Andy
  23. No they deserved to win! Mr. Softy gave up too many soft goals. You have one of our shut down Defenseman Hal Gill. You have a increadable Goalie in Halek. Talbot was not 100%. Malkin was snakebitten! McKee should have played he was our shotblocker. Also Ben Lovejoy should have played as well. We got the first shots off and we could not get to the rebounds. My second job is working at the arena. It is more of a perks job. See the games, discounts of the merchandise, walk in and out with the players. At tthe end of game five I walked out with Lemieux and his family. Andy
