    Nope, looks perfect to me.

    I've started using just regular scotch double sided (for posters/photos, etc) tape for the fragile 3D parts as they are so fragile. It is just strong enough to hold them on a stick.

    thanks karl.
    that's exactly what i used, and i attempted to pry it up from all 4 sides with a chisel blade. that's okay, like i said, i'll stack crates or something on it.

    OK good, for your next delicate detail try brushing some clean alcohol around the base of the part, it will dissolve the glue on the tape , just wait a minute for the part to fall off. Hope this helps.

    Kevin, I like it. Looks old and weathered to m e. Randy

    Looks amazing. The new custom tooling resin I am now using for delicate parts will virtually eliminate any breaks like this! Very happy with it. I took several pieces in my backyard and threw them against my brick wall and they didn't break. A very scientific experiment.

    Nothing else needed in my opinion. You got a great finish on it.

    Kevin, add a "weld" to it. Make it look like someone fixed a broken one.

    that's a clever idea, but it may be above my grade.

    The box idea will work....now...if it were a really heavy box....you could model it as a really heavy box that broke the hand truck....

    i've been having fun with 3d printed details.

    i realized that i never modeled a new acetylene tank, so i did.

    Trust everyone is having a nice holiday thus far.

    Brett sent me a couple of 3D printed HOn3 Logging Disconnect kits to work on. These kits went together flawlessly, the detail is just amazing and further illustrates how SWSM 3D Detail Parts are taking fine scale modeling to the next level! Thanks Brett for allowing me the opportunity to work up these wonderful disconnects.
