    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Don't know if I do iether. I picked up another item, not sure yet if I'm going to use it yet or not. It's a little on the heavy side. It's the Horizon Hobby Cub tailwheel. Look's good though. I'm also thinking about an OS gf40 for power instead of the DLE 30, though I trust the DLE's...

    I've done a little cutting on it now and love it! With the micrometer stop, I'm able to rip with precision! The fence stays tight and true.

    Not really on the model airplane radar. Scale ship builders sites though. byrnesmodelmachines.com. One of the most precise 4" table saws you can get!

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

I think I just have a mental block when it comes to latex paint. Can't seem to wrap my mind around using house paint for my...

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    It's the only thing I've used in the past. Mainly because of it's fuel proof properties back in my nitro days. I've looked at some of the automotive paints and they are way more expensive. Latex paints seem heavy, or is it a misconception?? The planes I've painted with dope come out nice and...

    Just placed the order! I was told I only need one 5m pack, due to the fact that its 54" wide. Hope its enough! I ordered their poly tac and poly brush as well. I was going to use Sig Dope for paint, but they have been out of the colors I want to use for some time now. Don't know if they will get...
