discussion Something to Avoid

Picture the scene;


Chassis model blu-tacked to a block of wood, just finished sanding sprue marks on the next component, reach for the glue. Pick up glue by lid (Tamiya Extra Thin), haven't put lid on properly lift up and knock bottle sideways, third of a brand new bottle all over.


Let this be a lesson, keep your lids on!!


Solvents don't like cutting mats =[

So easily done, I have done this and covered a part built kit before.

But on the bright side it looks a good way to get a rocky effect Matt

Until recently I was batting 0 for 3 now place bottle in a square of polystyrene haven't spilt any since glue doesn't like plastic as I found out to my cost.

It's a conspiracy by Tamiya I reckon
