  1. It doesn't get any simpler than a cardboard box with generic fan and filter. . . As you upgrade from the cardboard you gain the ability to mount lights and improve the fan/filter action as well as directing the fumes and adding secondary filters. I "Googled" Hobby Paint Booth and got 60700 hits with potential plans and ideas. Remember that with the electrical elements you gain safety issues. Good luck. Mike
  2. Fantastic! As accurate a representation as you're likely to see. . . And a big double ditto on Mr. Knights comment. Great scheme. . .
  3. Of course I feel the same way about anything from Barnes, Niven & Pournelle. . . Guess I'm fickle. . . Mike
  4. Nah. . . Looks to much like Yvette and Luciana! Is it dangerous to mention F. Pohl in the same breath as Sir Issac. . . The Gateway series has to be one of my reading highlights. . . Mike
  5. I'm very jealous. Here in Redding we're lucky to find a few old National Geographics at our "library".
  6. As more of an avid reader than a real movie goer, It was the Foundation Trilogy that hooked me into science fiction. I was apprehensive when the sequels and prequels started appearing but in the end only helped convince me of the amazing genius of Issac Asimov. Mike
  7. For what it's worth the book Airplanes by John T McCoy (1936 Rand McNally) claims to have scale drawings of the Vought O3U-3. I don't have a copy but they're out there. Good Luck. Mike

  16. I felt that a Russian film with Russian subtitles had to be important. I started looking for Russian films made in other countries and this one jumped to the front and seemed to fit. Updated stats will follow shortly. Mike

  21. "Decal variation of Hasegawa's 1995-release 1/72 Hurricane kit. Includes Aeromaster decals for Wn. R. Dunn's No.71 "Eagle Squadron" Hurricane (Summer 1941), and a U.S. insignia-marked Sea Hurricane used by the Royal Navy in Operation Torch in November of 1942 (Sea Hurricane arrestor hook parts not included)." These are details on an oop kit that still turns up. Don't know if that helps. I don't know the kit number. I know it was a Mk II. Mike
  22. And "Yes" for anyone who has been trapped in a convergent dimension for the last couple of years, "It's called Pledge with Future Shine now." Mike
