G.I.Jive was asking about the tools and equipment some of us modellers use, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to show some of the stuff I have used, and accumulated, over the past 30 to 40 years. Yes, there's at least one or two bits here that I've had since I was 16!
The first pic shows the main three storage case I keep the bits and pieces in, when not in use. On the left, a 'free-with-a-gallon-of-oil' plastic tool box, which contains such items as my mini-drill; in the centre, the main case for paints, brushes and other essentials, and on the right, a lunch-box (!) that holds the compressor, airbrushes and accessories.
Picture 2 shows most of the paints and bits and pieces, whilst Picture 3 shows a selection of tools, such as the mini-drill, vice etc.
Picture 4 is mainly the cutting tools, many and varied, whilst Picture 5 is my 'cheapo' compressor, a pair of different nozzled air brushes and other bits and pieces.
Finally, the last picture is of my faithfull, much travelled and battered 'angle poise' lamp, fitted with a 'daylight' bulb.
There is a lot more, but I didn't have room to spread it all out!
