Just wondering if anyone knows of a cheap(ish) source of easyflo No2?
I think Chronos are about £2.50 a stick.

Towards the bottom of this page
http://homemetalshopclub.org/news/aug04/aug04.html is an article on grinding
chuch jaws. The method seems to make some sort of sense.
I have a Toledo TCT 15 Combimachine grinder (struggling to find any decent

Currently building a Tamiya FW 190D.   MDC resin cockpit, cowling, airscrew
and undercarriage bay.  Eduard PE flaps. Eagle Cal decals.

It even has the open blown canopy robbed from an Eduard kit.

I've been reusing these boxes for years, except that I always wrap in
brown paper.  they are the perfect size for models.
Oh my, have I been breaking a rule?

I recently obtained a pukka taper turning attachment for my M300.  It
looks as good as new and came complete with the bed clamp and tie bar.
These parts are often missing from previous offerings I’ve seen (usually
on eBay).

I am currently stripping and re-building an old 50psi three legged pot
type Hydrovane compressor. I say old as it was manufactured by "Alfred
Bullows" so goes back a bit.
Two queries for anyone that knows or may guess.

Thinking about buying a few of their resin airyplaneses - anyone bought
anything from them? How's the service, the quality of the product etc? I
already know that they're not cheap... but they DO look good in the
pictures.

I'm looking for any empty 1/2 oz or 1/3 oz. glass model paint bottles. It
doesn't matter if the bottle is empty or contains old dried out paint, as
long as it is glass ( not plastic ) and the lid still fits tightly. If
anyone has 5 or more lying around to get rid of or sell, let ...

Goedendag ;-)
I'm trying to find the publishers (and their site) of the "Model Engineers
Workshop" magazine. It seems they had a nice article on making larger
outrunner motors in the February issue. Would be of interest to 'my' group:

I want to order a PE detail set for my Kirishima kit, but the sets are
by class rather than individual ship. I believe I heard somewhere the
Kirishima was a Konga class. Is that right?

Thanks for all the replies about rust in my workshop. I'll have a good think
of what next to do to rid the rust.
No-one  picked up upon the question about how I can get rid of the rust on
the bed of the milling machine.  Although I sprayed the machine vey well

I've got an ebay item of some bearing pullers (item 200222070804) to
collect from Newark, anyone likely to be going that way during the
next few weeks who could possibly start them on their journey
westwards? Pretty please? <g>

Can anybody give me some links to possible sources for servo motors suitable
for use with smaller CNC machines. Apart from the 'refer to sales office'
links the best I've come up with so far is a site offering motors at £1200 up
to £3500. Somehow that seems a little excessive ...

Sorry folks just a test.   Virgin media have forced me to change from
the old ntl news server.   Since I've not seen a single message in here!
Or perhaps the whole group is pissed at Harrogate.
