6th June 1944 - D-day
I actually think D-Day coverage is pretty good most years, it was certainly on the news today, and there is usually at least one other program around if you want to see the same films and ideas rehashed. However (there’s always a however) it always seems like the rest of the war never happened...- Tim Marlow

BLADES.
Agree with Miko. For MDF use a Stanley knife with a decent quality sharp blade. Blunt blades mean more effort, and more effort means more chance of the blade slipping and cutting what you don’t want it to cut. Start with light cuts and add a little more pressure as the cut deepens. Scalpels...- Tim Marlow

BLADES.
Swann Morton are by far the best. The blades are listed in Toto’s link. Personally I use 15a and 11 type blades, but I do have quite a few others for different uses. Hard to make a shape recommendation for you without knowing the use you are putting them to though.- Tim Marlow

Syringe
Just be aware that you can get ten of them for the price of two from Deluxe if you look for ink filling syringes on Amazon or similar. It’s just a 5ml luer lock syringe with a 14 gauge blunt needle. Very useful , as John says, but just a standard item repacked and marked up for modellers.- Tim Marlow

Small cannon guns
Vulcan models do a 2pdr in 1/35th. However, for the sort of scenario you are describing, I’m not sure that would be the right gun for you. Vickers MG would suit better…..- Tim Marlow

Seen that. Not so sure about the drone delivery system though, well, unless you want a 7000 part dinner service 😂- Tim Marlow

Plenty of times I’ve had that happen. I’ve even seen them stop outside m then drive off without getting out of the van. We tend to get the other problem though, stuff just delivered to random places. Round here people with deliveries coming from EVRI have had it left at field gates…….we had...- Tim Marlow

Brian's Caldercraft 1/72 HMS Victory
Not sure about that Brian. It probably won’t be given the respect it deserves, by teachers or pupils. Is there a local museum near you that might be interested? At least it would be cased there.- Tim Marlow

Brian's Caldercraft 1/72 HMS Victory
That just looks awesome. It really does show how each individual small addition, be it a knot, or a rib, or such, really builds up to a truly super detailed whole.- Tim Marlow

Must admit if they deliver to any other door but mine I immediately file a delivery failure report. They employ the courier to deliver to me, not near to me, so delivery failure is their issue. Not for me to ring around the neighbours trying to find a misdirected delivery. Xmas last year EVRI...- Tim Marlow

Not had much of a problem with Amazon delivery. The return system is another matter. Just had something delivered that was absolutely nothing like the item description. I requested return, and the usual system kicked in apparently without issue. Organised return with Royal Mail, all good...- Tim Marlow

Forum going very slow?
Never been on any sort of forum or web site that doesn’t occasionally have this sort of issue. Basically, if something doesn’t seem to work, tell John and wait for the advice or resolution. He’s far more likely to get back to you than on most other sites.- Tim Marlow
