Re: J Flinstone gearshift knobs

Thanks! That seems about right. For some reason I had 5 or 6 bucks stuck in my head. That must have been for all the smaller stuff.

J Flinstone gearshift knobs

Does anyone remember how much Jimmy usually charges for the larger gearshift knobs in the big plastic buckets? I certainly can't. I'm going to the show and a friend of mine wants me get a few for him.

Wonderfest website??

My anti-virus software has been blocking the wonderfest.com site saying it has a redirect virus. Has anyone else had this problem?

Yep, that's what they used. These legs are smaller than the ones in the old Polar Lights kit and not "borrowed".

Re: Creating custom bases

What do you want to make? Knowing the type of base may offer up some more appropriate materials you could use.

Interior of a castle walls and floor? Exterior in a graveyard maybe? Will it be close to the same size as the stock base?

Re: Fan for a spray booth

Re: Fan for a spray booth

I built my own booth and that site was extremely helpful. I wish some of the explanations and examples were a bit easier to understand. It's the ductwork that kills the working velocity. My booth is 16"x20". My fan is rated at 273 CFM and I bought is at Grainger http://www.grainger.com/pro...
