What the postman brought today (Armorama)

I should probably start building these instead of just collecting them… :smiley:

@barny Terry, I hope the VJR will deliver. When the current two white washed modeld are finished and both are very close, it’s back to a Dragon Panther D that needed its olive & red brown camo colors.


Arrived today, final piece of hobbyroom reorganization. All the aftermarket is getting organized and going into the appropriate labeled :label: drawer.

Need to know about that piece (size etc) and more importantly if it does work good for aftermarket storage after you use it?

I find it difficult to find something that “works” with our hobby needs and is decently priced.

hope I’m not repeating a question but where did you order this from and what’s it called.

I have 4 short totes; 1 for PE, 1 for resin, 1 for track sets, and 1 for barrels and they’re all full. Every time I start a kit I rummage through each bin for the aftermarket I know I have for it. Wade’s cabinet looks much more organized, but I could probably fill 3 of them.
So, Wade @Armor_Buff where DID you get it? It’s really cool looking and I could use it in my shop for more tools and paints.

@Brantwoodboy Michael & @SSGToms Matt,

Hobby Lobby mail order. There’s a link below.

Might want to check out the reviews. Lot of folks say it’s cheaply made but for what I need it should be OK. Small children might be at some risk sharp edges etc.

Small Cabinet Hobby Lobby

There’s a Prop 65 known to cause cancer in California warning :warning: (everything causes cancer in California) but I’m sure my aftermarket parts are far more toxic than the cabinet!

I wouldn’t put foodstuffs near it etc.

I have two large black totes and a few wire racks for most of the aftermarket/figures. I do have a bolt/screw draw set for my 3D parts that works ok and two thin draw set for the Archer/Quinto Studio and Evergreen products. Decals are whole separate problem that needs help. Wade’s setup seems to solves some of those issues.

I’m splurging on kits again…

I got a Bereg and some more aftermarket for a current build on the way. Very generous prices on the Grumble and Bereg, they’ve been on the wishlist for a while, so I had to. And now I’m running out of room

Spent too much money lately even though 3D file sales are down. :smiley:

This Dspiae reciprocating sander is the best of their tools I have bought so far. Its finesse allows you to sand even some small delicate parts from my 1/35 Thunder Model US loader. Very happy with the purchase.

However, at the same time, I could have saved $17 bc I did not know that the sander comes with various sanding heads and adhesive sanding paper sets. I bought extra 8 heads and sanding paper stickers unnecessarily… I guess they’ll last a life time. :smiley:

And these 3D prints from Ukraine! These parts from Res Kit were not cheap for sure but wow, I am impressed. They are nuts! Their 3D print quality puts me to shame. The 1/35 CH-54A folded main rotor parts for the ICM kit are the most complex, detailed, and well-printed things I have ever seen from anyone:


First, the Tarhe wheels:

I learned quite a bit just by looking at the prints and supports. Highly recommend these from Res Kit!

Who hasn’t had a Matchbox Saracen back then in the sixties? :wink::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
So now I layed my hands on a Dartmoor piece.
Quite challenging, but I love it!
And a new knife to cut corners :adhesive_bandage:
