Scale Model Shop

Latest Acquisitions (2019)

What postal service, all the way from. The middle of Russia from a place called Chelyabinsk ( where that large meteorite crashed to earth some years ago.)
Total time 9 days, not bad considering it takes nearly 5 days to arrive if posted in the uk. Over 4000 km by air .

John - you have got the fast dry cement, I thought you were getting the slow dry to make your tracks stay bendy??
 
I’m just as bad - order stuff off ebay and then find it isn’t really in the uk at all but actually China

I'm the same. Even when I specify "UK only" in my search most of the items seem to be located in Shenzen!

Yes I was Simon ! So sent off another order, this time I double checked that it was the slow. VMS have a double set , one of each, then another slow and fast separately
When you think about it most of our hobby plastic comes from China, or Europe, the glue from Japan , paints from Spain ,Japan, the US. :confused:
 
Through my letterbox, a few 1/48 resin parts for models waiting in the stash

Where do you live? Must be a place full of old model makers dropping off the perch!
There's never anything like that in our charity shops:rolling:

Hi Neil I did ask the lady who was dropping them off but she can't tell me, was hoping to see what else he might have.
Guess I was born lucky :thinking: ???.

Cheers Si nice purchase indeed.

Pete, I landed on the SS and Grenadiers issues back in the '70s while in college. They have been very useful over the years. I'm sure you are already enjoying them. Cheers, Rick H.

Hi Rick I think these books are brilliant as you can tell from the number I've bought recently, the information is still the same as in newer books.
