Hey thanks for all the great tips on ammo boxes. Quick noob question! Which glue is best for this type of box. I tried making one tonight and it's a bit of a failure as it won't stick together. I used plastic cement which i had laying around this doesn't seem to work very well; albeit after two whiskies! :)

The idea of CCTV cameras in motorway service area’s watching all their coffee stirrers disappear.
Obviously why the coffee is so dear there.
Now I don’t feel quiet so guilty leaving with a pocket full. :{ :{

Great idea/Tip and costs nothing. As Sax says, the great thing about this forum is that experienced modelers and novices alike, will share their Knowledge. There are some forums with some great modelers but they dont like parting with their techniques, a bit like the magic circle I suppose. Now I will probably be taken out and shot for saying that LOL :O :O :O

Now I'm a thief, Dr green fine man,been my doctors a long time. So he has a habit of working me in last as sticking me in an exam room he also uses to stock all the Doctor stuff. Well here I sit reading an aviation mag and look over at this box of Wooden tongue depressors.

Well I had to go their,and grabbed a few. Now ever time he sticks the damn thing in my mouth I start laughing, I'll have to tell him,Johnf these would work very well for 1/6 scale,I'll post some pics as I have some scale A/P German 88 rounds.cheers

Hi Sax. I was thinking of building the metal storage box beside the driver and putting some 88 shells in it. I was thinking about some wooden crates for the schwimwagen though.
