Soooo....youre the one painting my pipes blue...

I would have ended up smashing that thing with a hammer...

I made a model of a Imperial Shuttle...



Like you I pre painted everything...sanded down the edges...when I was putting it back together the last thing I needed to do was add the glass to the cockpit...it was warped...I sanded down one side to see if it would fit...it didnt...I took it out back and smashed it into bits with a hammer...

Nice job...you have infinate patience...

The person who built that motorcycle model has much too much time on his hands.

What, no video of the first time he fired it up? All that time building a chain, and then put too much tension on it. It's not going to last more than 7,000 or 8,000 yards.



But seriously, wow.
