Re: Silent auction suggestions
I quite like the idea Pete, as for the multiple offers at the same price, just go by timestamp on an e-mail, whoever made that offer first wins. But yes, as said above, start with a "minimum" price to satisfy f1m, give an e-mail address and only accept offers through that e-mail to keep it...

Re: New Shapeways Store
A26g, the axle set does include both sides, the picture on the page was my first test print to check size etc.... You'll be happy to know that the DFV intakes are now completely modeled up in CAD, I just need to nest them for printing. I have also finished up the brakes and hubs and have just starte...

Re: airbrush/compressor help
I run into this every now and then and find it's mostly self inflicted. My theory is that if I don't release the paint flow prior to shutting off the air paint can flow through the needle in to the nozzle. If I then reintroduce the air that paint shoots out as a blob and onto the model, I have to ve...

Re: MP4/6 Yet another technique for that wrinkled carbon eff

I've seen it with my own eyes many times having worked in F1 for several years. Whether the piece in quest...
