Sorry guys I'm not getting any emails from the forum right now... :shock:
but I have new pics!
Thanks for all the kind words, I don't want to sound like a broken record but I really appreciate it "thumbsup"
Noted...
Also noted, I am styrene ignorant... Do you use CA then back it with E6000 or something?
Wood is your friend after the glue has dried the joint is stronger than the wood it's made from. PM me they're are a few unclaimed yet.
How in the hell did it get there so fast! I tracked it today and saw it was delivered...
Did it arrive ok? I'm a little worried about the front corners getting damaged.
So here's what I see wrong with styrene
1. Its 8 times more expensive than wood
2. I fondled the 3mm and it seemed flimsy aaand heavy. I can
stand on a wood one, literally... I have a pic somewhere.
3. Since it's thinner the CAD drawing is wrong and some of it will need trimmed to fit together properly.
Here's the good parts
1 It's way easier to cut
2 My bits will last longer
3 There is no dust just tiny plastic chunks
4 If you can use CA with it that'd be bad ass
5 you could layer thinner styrene for raised trim... also doable with balsa too
I'd still make a couple outta of it just to see but I don't see it going anywhere unless there's a demand... the expense alone is the worse part.
