Ohh, sorry to hear of your arm Bruce!

Hopefully by now much better of not even back to "mint condition" :-)

Thanks, gents! So much for rest and heal. I did this last night:

Interior structure

Milliput-sculpted details

I still need to sand the sculpted additions after Milliput cures. I would like some advice about thinning Mr Surfacer 500 in the jar. Am I able to thin that for use in an airbrush? I would like to use the jar and it occurred to me that I used to coat the rough resin with the can version. Is this wise?

Help an old man...what is it? Magneto?
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Yes, it is! You are 100 percent correct, sir! Was it Bendix who made these in the U.S.? Maybe they still do. Maybe GE? The one on the BMW801A is Bosch, but I have not dug deep enough to know the type. Actually my Sam Spade work hit a wall doing research.

Wait, I missed something. Your arm is hurt? I’m sorry to hear that! I hope it gets on the mend soon. Injuries just totally suck.
