When you don't have super human scratch skills like the Scotties of this world, this place might come in handy for some of us.
Unsurprisingly the shackles weren't exactly cheap but the cable is pocket change. Available in different sizes and a quality 7x7 stainless twist. Hardly worth twisting your own.

Saved too!
They do look good.

Except that one made from copper wire will stay in the shape you bend it in, whereas stainless steel has a small problem with that.
Stainless is somewhat problematic as PE or wire.
Looking forward to the lesson Steve!

Hi all
So firstly apologies for not having had a chance to comment on many of the fine builds I can see going on but I don't have the time to give them what they deserve....yet!
The good news though is that the studies are nearly over. The online test has to be sat within the next week - 25 tricky multiple choice questions in an hour. The assignment has to be in by 5th June but I have already managed to finish that, subject a final run through (or two)....
Anyway....enough waffle.....so the below book was recommended by James Holland on his podcast.....I went 2nd hand as usual.....ex-libary book but in good nick and only £4 delivered.
As for the below kits, a friend of friend had dabbled in the hobby but it wasn't their thing and so they had a clear out and gave everything away to a good modelling home....in other words yours truly....for free. I reckon they're worth about £90!
In addition to the kits there were some paints, decals and other modelling supplies - although a few bits weren't worth keeping. All in all just over £100 worth of stuff!
Stay safe all. I will be back soon properly.....whether you like it or not!
:smiling5:

Took the words out of my mouth 
Looks like he forgot to include a photo of it?
That M1A1 kit builds up very nicely. Not the most accurate one you’ll find, but it’s Tamiya so you know it will go together well.

Gotta love a Jaguar, still looks both sexy and mean after all these years
Idiot that I am....not only did I forget to add the photo.....I had actually forgotten to take it!!

Thanks again guys!

The usual story, Needed some paint for a kit that has still to arrive... It was a bank holiday here Thursday... The shop I bought the kit did not have the paint so off to another shop...
They had a sale on aircraft kits. And had the paints. lol
The kit that I actually bought that started this little avalanche can actually be seen in the background of the artwork for this one. lol.
And one I have been looking at to often now.
