Bob .
I keep hearing about this make and looking at their web page the replacement parts are quite cheap .They do a tip and needle that fits a Neo at virtually half the price of Neo by Iwata .
That .8 would suit me
, think of all the 4BO I could hurl about !Nice socks by the way :smiling3:
Looks good Bob
Nigel's Modelling Bench did a review and he seemed well pleased with it
Looks like there are a certain age range of us modellers that are looking at a trigger AB
Me included!
As already requested , let us all know how it goes once your modelling room is finished

An Evri delivery...................
Not that inspiring boxart !
I was looking for WWI warships - resin & Flyhawk models are way beyond what I want to pay - I was looking for the Trumpeter 1/700 Dreadnought 1907, but couldn't find one at a price I liked! Then I came across the Trumpeter Warspite 1915 ( as originally completed ). It was on offer at <£25 delivered, so I grabbed it ( it's now gone up to £29 + p&p ). It will be an interesting comparison with the ICM 1/700 Koenig..............

.... and so to my latest INDULGENCE necessary buy:tears-of-joy:,
Since doing the Spitfire,and whilst doing the Mosquito,i decided it would be nice to try and do a model of each of,(what i consider to be),the Iconic Planes of WW2,to that end i searched for a "Hurricane":money-face:,didn`t want to splash out too much as i`m not really a Wingy modeller,but after Tim`s suggestion i found this on "Kingkit" for a very reasonable outlay.....
Well,after peeking in the box there ain`t many bits:thumb2:,(Good for me!!),however it`s VERY sparse on internal details..... BUT it has a Pilot,so if i use him and have the cockpit closed up...... who`s gonna know ?!!:tears-of-joy:.

As an aside I met the last surviving BoB pilot in his nursing home last year, he flew Hurricanes.
There was a bit of a fuss made over him at the IAC celebrations a few weeks back.
Nice one Andy. You would have enjoyed the internals though…..it’s like a box kite with levers and dials…..
Cheque's in the post mate!!
You actually met a true BOB eh?!!... I am SO envious.. that must've been so amazing!!
You make it sound like a Wright Brothers kinda thing mate!!
Andy
She served a long time, fought in many notable actions....... a beautiful brute......
HA!! Nice one Dave:tears-of-joy:....
... Looks better there than what i`ll probably get out of the kit already
!!
You know, if you changed your name to Bob by deed poll I’d probably start calling you Andy again……sorry mate!HA!! Nice one Dave:tears-of-joy:....

Hi Steve hope you and family are well
Yes my age is a factor, years of spanners, rackets and lifting have taken there toll
Really like a trigger brush, the Iwata TRN is great. Only issue I can find is the threads on the medium cup is very fine, might not take much to strip the thread
