Great stuff Lee. I gave a brace of the pugs to Ron a while back, and have made several of each of the other wagons in my railway days. Made the Welly as a nipper as well….all of them are decent kits and build up well.

Thanks Tim. I’m going to give them try and I might make a small display with them.

Got these today $26.26 USD delivered from Evilbay.......not bad as it averages out to about $5.25 USD per model.
Front row, DKW F7 coupe, Citroen 11, Wanderer sedan, DKW F7 Cabrio and a Wanderer Cabrio all of which were used by the Wehrmacht as staff cars. I now have at least a dozen of these and will at some point do a group build of these various types to integrate them into my miniature world. Rick H.

As some of you possibly read on my build I finally retired my old tweezers and went looking for replacements...

Well here are the replacements, and as you can see they have been in full use - not!!!
The Pink pair are what is left from the 'Army Painter' set of tweezers, the ones with the points must have been produced with an offset machine and a one eyed peasant, will not be buying their products again. The loose pair at the top are ok for general work, provided you file the tips square, because if you leave them 'round' you will be chasing parts all over the room let alone bench. And as for the set in the pouch - well the pouch may come in handy for something - for product quality please see 'Army Painter' comments above.
Well at least I tried, so it is back to the faithfull tweezers with 240 paper stuck to the jaws.
As an aside will be spending tomorrow helping my next door neighbour to fix this little problem after some delightfull cretins decided to break into his home. Did their parent breed or were they from a test tube - the jury is still considering, my solution is that the parents should be prosecuted for mating with animals.

Can’t wait to see you do your magic on then Rick.

[Tim Marlow]

If the tweezers aren’t up to snuff Mike I’d send them back as not of merchantable quality! Only place to get decent ones is a good jewellery tool supplier…. Not cheap, but at least they work!
As to the break in, well, there are some real scum out there, with no respect for anyone or anything.
