I'm upgrading my BCA mill (again) and there are a few locating pins
missing. The pins are used to ensure that the bits align accurately when
assembled.
The pins are 0.1875 (+/- 0.0001) inches, or accurately 3/16, diameter.

I could do with a small sheet metal folder as since leaving work I've
lost the ability to pop into their workshop and use one from time to
time. They will still let me go in and use it but I have to call in
favours and so would rather save those for the bigger jobs.

Getting ready to build a 1/48 Panther for a friend and I want the best
kit possible.  I have the old Monogram kit w/ raised panel lines,
etc., but the Hobbycraft kit has recessed panel lines.  I'm OK with
the raised lines as long as the Monogram kit is accurate, etc.

and folding back and forth until the parts come apart.

Has anyone heard if there is a prop set for the Kinetic Models 1/48 scale
E-2C Hawkeye rather than the 4 bladed to the 8 bladed props? I would like to
get a set for mine.

I have had mixed success with my winnowing machine and I want to do
better next year.
The machine, as described below, throws up and out about half of the
alder seeds, and lets fall through for collection the other half,

Info Requested Re: U-570/HMS Graph
I have just bought the Revell 1/72 German U-Boat VIIC/41 Atlantic
Version kit and I am 'toying' with the idea of building it with say
the port side as U-570 and the starboard side as HMS Graph. Can anyone

I've always liked the streamlined art deco look of the period for
vehicles. Have only seen die cast so far.
anyone ever see models of this era?
I like this Lindberg kit but its a 1969 cab..

1/20 scale does not mean a lot in the world of fantasy sci-fi.
Maybe its a foot long?????  What y'all think.
