Any model vehicle collectors out there?

[wherrygirl]

the idea is,when a truck is turning ,while a cyclist was beside the truck,the cyclist is cath by the catcher and push him/her away from the wheels of the trailer.
remember my story ,whats happend in Arnhem in the 80's?

Yes, I see. Thanks.

yes,the cheapest varnish there is,is working well.

So Thijs is happy!

[janihudi]

mwah,HAPPY is such a big word.

last night i made a lot of white lines for my colombian friends



today placed the decals on the side plates

[janihudi]

made the mudscreens on the chassis as also the wheels



and painted the wheelnutcovers bleu

[janihudi]

sprayed a bunch of wheel rings white



and 2 containers in the varnish

[janihudi]

finished the bike catchers and placed them,also gleud the white wheelrings on the bleu chassis.tomorrow gleu the chrome rings on the green chassis,also finish the the trailer back sides



sprayed the other 3 containers in the varnish,and tomorrow painted the closures

Good heavens, production has speeded up, you've done a terrific amount now. Thijs, how is the foot? Has it quite healed now? I did ask you in one of my emails, but as usual you ignored me . With all you have been doing lately I would assume it's OK. Hope so.

[janihudi]

me ignored You,when how??

i react at it on 22-12,the last time you ask,after i had seen the dokter.
foot is oke,wound is almost closed.no infection.

[wherrygirl]

Yes, sorry, Thijs, was muddling it with another time. But it is good news about the foot. Just take great care until the wound is completely closed for when you're back at work (boo!) there will be a lot of pressure on it instead of being able to walk carefully.

[janihudi]

damn,decals which i have couldend found them back,licence plates for the models are al to long,so can't use those .
spending the most of the day searching for those decals, the only + point,i got a clean and tidy building corner again.
but this i didn't wanted.
useless holiday,modelbuilding wise.

[wherrygirl]

useless holiday,modelbuilding wise.

Why on earth do you say that? Judging by the photos you've posted above you have got through a terrific amount of work on the models: mud flaps, bike catchers, side plate decals, wheelnut covers, wheel rings,varnished the containers. Useless holiday?????? Rubbish.

[janihudi]

i wanted to do lots more,than what i have done.

[janihudi]

i wanted to finish the trailer back sides,but couldend find the decals,and what i found was to big.3mm to long



painted the closures of the containers

[wherrygirl]

i wanted to do lots more,than what i have done.

And so you would if it had not been for your foot, which confined you to easy sitting-down jobs. But you can be very proud of what you have achieved.
What are the decals made of? Is it not possible to shorten them, Thijs? If it is only 3mm. there seems to be space to take a little off each end without touching the indented part.

[janihudi]

if i'll do that,i have to cut away the NL part,and by that the licence plate issn't complete anymore

[wherrygirl]

Ah, I couldn't see what the blue bit was.

[wherrygirl]

(i want to do a lot those 3 weeks of holliday ,that i have now,yes you're all stock with me the next 3 weeks)

Well, we've survived it!

[janihudi]

bearly i suspose
