I found a whole hole, taking up some serious emptiness....like, like, like if it was nothing there!
I'm so glad that I didn't panic, no sir!

The second word is "Off" !
Haven't been at the bench for a bit, but, running the risk of becoming a perpetual monkey with a button internet shopper, I did do a bit of.......cough cough......ahem.....impulsive internet shopping. I have been busy at the post office picking up items that have been arriving willy nilly for the last few months that were purchased when I was enjoying a month long Covid vacation, such as some Akan Lacquers for WWII VVS from Hobby Colors of Greece.
Decided to bulk up on a few Gunze RLM colors, along with some Vallejo thinner and Tamiya Extra thin, from Sunward Hobbies, to help offset shipping costs......
And because I use a lot of this tape I bulked up on it in a package deal on Ebay from a seller in Japan, no great saving per say, except for the lack of shipping charges or gasoline costs
And the icing on the cake, Special Hobby had a sale on for "members" where every week for 4 weeks they had a few different kits at, if I recall correctly, 50% off. I decided if they posted up one of the 1/48 FAA kits I was interested in, I'd grab one. Only took just under 2 1/2 months to get here, which was expected under the circumstances.
I also bought and recieved this from Ebay just before the world went wonky, but here it is anyway

Great haul Tim. I would love to deal with Sunward but I get no slack on shipping because of where I live
It costs me the same as it costs you to shop there, so when I order things from him I try to order enough to justify the cost. Since it costs at roughly $10+ gas to hit a hobby shop in Calgary I try to limit my visits to when I'm going in for other reasons, unfortunately the shop I frequent when I'm there doesn't always have what I'm in need of, plus they don't carry Gunze, so for the extra roughly $10 on top of fuel costs, I get what I'm looking for within the items he carries usually sooner then if I waited to head into the city which isn't a regular event.
Another place I order from is Hobby Wholesale of Edmonton, they charge $12 shipping for most things and have very good service, But they don't carry some things Sunward does and vice versa. I do try to support the brick and mortars/Canadian shops when it is practical even if it's not always the cheapest option.
