I am trying desperately to help my son who is just starting a new business
manufacturing retractable grill's in the UK.
He is unable to "hook up" his Bridgeport CNC series 1, boss 5 via

Which one is right ?

I have managed to lose the instructions for my son's Revell Spitfire Mk
V (04164).  I have emailed Revell GmbH to see if I can get another copy,
but have had no reply as yet.  If there is any kind soul out there who
can send me a scan I would be most grateful - it will help me ...

Greetings, I've posted looks at three of Tamiya's 1/48 de Havilland Mosquito

Does anyone have any pics or descriptions of the correct paint scheme
for a  Me-208 (not 108 unless they had similar schemes) as used by the

I'm trying to recreate the various stencils and warning signs on a
Concorde model in Air France livery.  If anybody could provide a
