Not yet. I will may have to break down and buy the whole kit. Copy those parts then try to resell it.

Tell you what, how about I buy one of the whole kits send you the parts to copy, provided I will get the originals all back of course, so you can make a few sets for the other members who have spoken up saying they want an engine also.

That would be great!! 8O I will gladly return the parts to you with several copies of each so you have multiple engines. I will then be able to make everyone who wants one a copy for a small fee, just my time and cost of resin and postage. I am happy to help out the other members as you would really be helping me out! PM me and I will get you my information. Thanks!! 8)

Slow down there! This is a $300 kit so I'm not going to be able to get it for a week or 2 so bear with me. Will I be charged for the couple copies as well I'm already paying $300 for the kit?

Of course, no problem, I will send four copies along with the master at no cost back to you. Thanks!

We had a set back here at my house in getting the model kit, my daughters 8 month old puppy got into some of my modeling supplies and chewed up a tube of model putty possibly swallowing some of it. We rushed her to the vets where they cleaned out her mouth and pumped her stomach and right now she's on medication so that hopefully her kidneys and liver have not been damaged but only time will tell as the putty contains Toluene which warns of kidney and liver damage if ingested. Her vets bills so far have just eclipsed $400 half of the money coming from my tank fund so right now I'm back to square one in obtaining the kit. Right now the best I will be able to do would be 3 more weeks as I get paid bi-weekly, sorry everyone but nothing I could do.

I'm now the "bad guy" around my house even though it was my wife who moved my supplies off the table and onto the floor in the corner of the dining room with no warning of her doing it or asking me to move them elsewhere, I have pointed this out several times but it was my "damn toy crap" that has "almost killed the baby". :/ I can't win! :thumbdown:
