    Tamiya nowadays uses PC+PA even for the cheap stuff

    Polycarbonate (PC) isn't any better. I did break two Mud Blaster II chassis at the exact same spot. Luckily this POS is long gone together with my other Tamiya stuff. Now I am spending my hard earned cash on cars that use modern materials.

    I'm after a favour from a Spanish TC member as I've found an item with a seller from there and they won't send to the UK!

    Might not have to be in Spain just it seems anywhere else 🙄.

    Small envelope sized package

    Thanks

    I am in Germany and would love to help out.

    Hello, I'm wondering if theres a TC member in Germany who could help me out with an order for some small parts from Modelbau Seidel that they could then be able forward on to the UK for me. Will be happy to return the favour with some beer funds!

    I've never been successful at removing old rubber from (plastic) wheels with a lathe.

    What works best IMO is the acetone-fume-method:

    Put the wheels in a sealable container together with a small bowl filled with acetone. Give it a couple of days so the fumes have time to dissolve the glue.
