@LDD- I think I'd rather have the new Dremel Saw Max myself, It's probably cheaper than the MicroLux, but MAN, I would LOOVE to have that miniature belt/dusc sander they make As for the rust powders, I dunno, the Doc O Brien's powders are god, wait for the buy one get one free sale for the powders.

Dave without sounding an idiot which one is the Dremel Saw Max ? cant find that in the catalogue, I like the MicroLux as its like a miniature table saw which would be much easier for cutting larger size pieces, I like the mini belt disc sander as well nice little tool there.

I think I will wait for the sale, value for money and all that but if I can get the same effect from the Rust And Dust Range I will be buying them …..

Dave, I understand not wanting to dril through the hex nuts, but what about cutting hex nuts out of PC that already has holes drill in it. Like, cutting a hex shape out from around the hole.......

No Max, the hex nuts are sliced from rod.

Now I see, but I still want the table saw …. and some Flanges he eh eh he he he eh

Smaller flange

These would be easier to drill and pin, no nuts.

aww look at the widdle baby flange!

Looking good Dave.

Interesting stuff looking forward to seeing them attached and painted.

A unic flange then heh he he

No but seriously the pipe work is looking great, have you got an idea to the layout of the pipework, or are you just building components.

Will you be building pressure valves for this set up ?

i think it is best you stick to your methods...the drill flange looks not the same quality as the master craft flange!

WOOO! 100 pages! well done danstas!

I have no idea how I am going to incorporate all of this into a final product yet. But you can't have any of that until you work out how to mass-produce fittings and such to get there. As far as that goes, I think i have been successful.

Yep

My Vallejo Air Metallics arrived yesterday. That means today....

YAY! Can't wait to see how it goes!

And an ace job on the pipe stuff too, any chance of seeing something assembled or have you not finished it all yet?

Naa, I don't really have a specific plan for them, but now that they are in my arsenal this will soon change

sounds good dave^ looking foward to this painted beast as well

Looking forward to seeing these colours in action, although i am sure the results will be amazing ……..



P.S. like the banner Brother

Intermediate blue followed by Dark sea grey

I like the sheen to this, its almost like it's reflecting light ……..

No LDD, that's the dark sea grey highlighting done down each panel line and each hard edge But thanks for beeing fooled!
That must mean it worked?




"GUN"

Dam good job there then mate, I was convinced the light was being reflected back, seems they were worth the money then

The blue and grey are not metallic paints, but "GUN" is.

And before anyone could mention it, I touched up the grey.

are you able to touch up these copper parts with an AB? whoa, i wouldn´t trust my hands on that one...but i do trust yours...

as of now the gun parts look a lil too rich for my taste but a good wash and some rust will mend this quite good i think^^

dang.... too late

Yup Vik! They work!- yaya rust later.






Now it's rust time

"DIDI'S MAGIC INK" what the hell is that

Well you did a good job with the non metallic's and the brass pipe looks nice, but agree with Vik that it could do with dirtying up a bit

Have to say the next demand I have to face is painting again

What make are the best brushes to use, I don't mind the price as long as they are good

It's like GW's old brown ink of magic.

hey its looking sweet so far dave, although i think it is too bright, but i know your not done so i wont pester

Page 100 and nice imnages of the flanges and tower!
