$48...A bit expensive I think!!! I think $5 spent at Moduni is more like it... http://www.moduni.de/index.php/cPath/40000000_40520000_40523501

Classic film soap gun The most classic film soap gun must be Woody Allens who escapes with a soap gun in rain and up with a lot of foam in his hand!!!

Another suggestion!!! A Sikorsky River Patrol Boat. I have search for more info then to be found in the attatched link...but can't find any!!! http://www.sikorskyarchives.com/boat2.html

Hi all, Following this discussion with great intrest...also very inspired after seeing Scorpios work. I think I'll go for the Halinsky myself...also in my collection. Now and then I grab a brush and paint some watercolors...I actually not that bad...people have bought from me. :D...

I remember back in the early 70's when I was building plastic Tamiya had a good selection of 1:25 armor. In most of those kits one or several figures was included. I did build the Tiger I with electric motor and in that one you got a crew member plus the commander (plus MG and submachine...

Figures 1:25 Hi Jim, I have been looking for the same...the closes thing I have found is Preiser figures (for model railways). I have found figures in both 1:25 and 1:22,5 (G Scale). They even have a kit with German WW2 weapons. Preiser have some Military band soldiers but what you have...

Just one problem with this scenario. They ALWAYS fall down at some point in history. Anyone whoever makes a "Pully-hoist" layout, only ends up making one for the lifetime. A friend had a large one running on a very large sheet of plexiglass, supported by chains. When moving it...

Don't mess around, it can cost you. Contact The Charles Ro Company; http://www.charlesro.com/ Tell them what you have and exactly what you think you want to do. They'll set you up right for Christmas!:)

Ted, I use "Mountains in Minutes" brand. You mix two chemicals into a large cup and as the chemical reaction gurgles, you pour it over your forms, and spread with a stick. It's expands rather dramatically, and as it sets, you spread it with a flat stick. You must work quickly as it sets...

YO! My mountain from my last layout is still in the box. It's about five feet long, rises probably over 18 inches and is three feet deep. I poured foam over duct tape that was supported by crumpled newspaper, which was later removed to prevent a fire hazard. I detailed it with a road, a...

We have so many different routes to the same destination now in our hobby endeavours. I have not heard of anyone using newspaper and plaster to make anything outside of school in a long time,and it takes me back in time to forgotten things. One method nobody seems to use anymore is CHICKEN...

Greetings, Y'all! IHC. Well, they certainly have those of us on a budget over a barrel, don't they? Let's look back. AHM > Rivarossi > IHC. How many of you are aware of this progression? I purchased my first AHM coach around 1969 when there was a selction of perhaps 5 roadnames at...

The only thing to curse about a TYCO is the mechanism if it's a locomotive:mad: Rolling stock is fine!:)

Justind, Also, inspect the wheels carefully. If they're plastic, they may have flash or spurs that can be trimmed down properly with a blade or hobby knife. A lot of plastic wheels are broken off of sprues at the factory, and have a small spur on them at one point. Dirt and carpet fuzz...
