Hey Tom, what size drill bits do you use?

[ModelManTom]

@00sven00sven00 It was likely a .5mm as the smaller ones broke too easily.

Hey Tom. I'm just starting a my second mpc avenger and unlike the first I'm going to light it, so I have been re-watching these vids for tips...then I spotted that interesting thing on your bench bottom left...what is that??

@motile2 Matchbox Destroid from Robotech, late 1980's

Good luck with the cooper - it is a beautiful kit.- mine is sitting nicely on the 'to do' shelf.

Did you see the SW Prop forum post of the guy who fibred his cooper?

I've seen a few lit up over at Eagle forum, resinillunmanit and hobbytalk too.  It's the only way to go with the studio scale kits.

I hear King Crimson in the background! Good stuff!!!
