Take care dude!!! Hmm.. PIcs you can count on me. :iceslolan
BTW, anyone know where to get " Diamond File " and higher than 1000 grit sand paper? I need to file My EVO's bumper.. :bloated:

Go to DIY for Diamond file...
For sand paper above 1000...
You can only get the Tamiya brand...
As I tried many places but they do not seem to bring in the 3M Brand..
Asking me "You need so high grade for what?"

Some DIY shops I went to never carry those files. Neither the sand paper..
I just got a bottle of brake fluid.. Arghz.. not enough to cover my car to strip piant!! :frown: *Thanks Aniode*

You can try going to Vinmart to look for the diamond shape files. I remember seeing them. They come together with flat and rounded ones in a set.

Hey njh, where is Vinmart? Can give location.. then I go see see..
BTW, you comming this time round? :biggrin:

The Vinmart at Century Square should have it. I can check it for you tomorrow. I pass by there everyday.
Hmm.. I should be going if I don't have many projects coming up.

Diamond files... you can go Sim Lin Tower (next to Sim Lin Square). There's alot of them...and if you want to go Vinmart, there are 3 place so far I know is: Takashimaya basement, Bugis Junction inside Seiyu and Post building at Paya Labar MRT.

So far...

you are not the only SG who build 1/43 scale cars, me too...but I only show to my sensei!:cool: :sunglasse

Rtuned

btw, please... all SG meets are only for 1/24 scale or bigger... thanks.

I like to try my hands on the 1/43 cars but I don't know how to start :wink:

Anyway, I still suckz at 1/24 cars so maybe I better not think about 1/43 :)

1/24 cars are more easier to handle... 1/43 is small but look good after built...but in SG these models are too expensive.

maybe you should PM MercedesAMG for how to start on 1/43...
Hope you could drop by our meet every month...:bigthumb: but 1/43 can leave it at home. hahaha!!!

Rtuned :worshippy :worshippy :worshippy

:iagree: :iagree:

Hi all, pai seh, never post here at all. Sorli hor, never give support :biggrin:

Now that I know, I will do so ok? :wink:

Met up in-person with Rtuned, Jason, Redfever and ktan, of course not forgetting good ol srlxy!

I am new amongst you guys but I hope with time goes by, we'll meet up soon, hopefully, with all my busy work schedules...etc
Been hearing alot about you guys from Rtuned, of course all good things lah :tongue:

Then we can share hints tips and all the jargon modelers here are so akin to.
