You would be welcome any time! I have two glasses on the counter...and a straw.

A little progress! I cleaned up the bench. I loves me some red bondo glazing and spot putty!

Considering where it was, this may turn out ok....

Threw some more liquid styrene at it. I've found that 100 grit sandpaper will make quick work of the excess, followed up with 220 and then finer as we go. Detail? Panel lines? We don't need no stinkin panel lines!

I wouldn't go that far, Jim! Surrender is always an option - followed by uncontrolled flight into a hard surface.

My half-baked (pun intended) dryer-helper-outer.....right after this, it came crashing down. No damage to the beast.

No damage? Is that because its more bondo than plastic?
You can learn all the math in the 'Verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

:D :yahoo: Mikey, I'm not sure. It could be, though. In a couple of spots, the secret, government approved, special radar absorbing, gap filling material "cracked"....but not bad. Nothing another tube won't cure.
