You should send a letter to the owner... The same thing that you said on this video. It would be helpful to include the clerk's name.

WOW that would look cool!!!!! Thank you so very much!!!! I really do appreciate the comment!!!!!!!
Look forward to seeing the results. 😊 Charlie
I appreciate that my friend! LOL Me too!!!!!!!
You're welcome brother. Glad you like it. I feel honored l sent you your first shop card. Have a great day buddy. Look forward to your next video
To be honest Charlie, that reply means so very much to me!!!!!!! Thank you so very much for watching..again lol. PLEASE let me know if there is any way I can make the video better!!!! I love your videos, so concise and awesome when they are done!!!!!
Big Charlies an awesome dude As of yet i dont have any cards to pass out Not in the budget Tajes a lot of care to get them where they need to be Stay well
LOL I really do understand!!!! It took me about 3 weeks to figure out the format for my cards lol!!!! How I'm keeping my budget, might work for you!!! I designed the card, front and back, then printed it out on a heavy, very heavy card stock on my inkjet, then spraying in very light coats, an el-cheapo clear, from rustoleum lol. Look good and they will not run if rained on. Don't drop in water they will disintegrate lmao!!!!! You have a great one my friend!!!!! Paul
I don't need you to give me anything to watch your channel.
I totally understand that and I wholeheartedly want to thank you for saying so! The reason behind the giveaway is not to entice viewers and subscribers, it is to show my deep appreciation to those that do subscribe and or watch my videos!! Thank you so very much for your comment!!!!!
you got me by 5 years, I’m 62 and now retired. I did modeling as a 11-13 year old. I was into WWII models like Monogram's Patton Tank and armored half-track. My versions never looked like the box because I never had the paints so these models would end up being set on fire reenacting battles. Now i have the bug again and moey to invest in proper tools. Currenlty working on Polar Lights Capt. America model my kids got me for Father’s Day many many years ago because it was Capt. America of which I am a fanboy., not because I was into modeling. This is my first model since I was 13.
I want to apologize for replying to my first video!!! I didn't know how to go back and look lol. ANYWAYS, thank you so very much for that awesome comment!!!!!! OMG, LOL I did the exact same thing back in the day with some of my models lol!!! We grew up in a way different time! We would play army and I was the biggest kid so I ended up being the Germans lol! Because even though 2 of the other kids were my age and 1 year younger, I was still much bigger, BUT I won all the time LMAO! I played a lot by myself, so I would go behind the garage with a small pump oil can, with gas lol, and pretend it was a flame thrower lol. I had sooo many of the big GI Joes, you know what they are lol, that sometimes I would set them on fire LOL!!!! Anyways my friend, I do hope that I have earned your subscription as well, and I have added your name to my list for my giveaway!!!!!! I do hope that you are re-enjoying getting back to the hobby as I am!!!!!!!!! Have an awesome day and keep on keeping on!!!!! I bet you got that one!!!!!!

Thank you so much for your comment!!! I am thoroughly enjoying the hobby I gave up almost 56 years ago! Once again, Thank you so much for your comment!!!! Paul
Pretty cool setup there.

@@OlderThanDiertModeling-nx9og hey Paul!! Thanks for the kind words and support!! Sorry I didn’t find your channel sooner! Looking forward to slowing song with it now.

@@OlderThanDiertModeling-nx9og thank you!! I’m enjoying it. Will give feedback if I see anything I can help with!!
Nice work!! My favorite gloss black is Mr Color GX2 Ueno black. I find it’s pretty forgiving to paint over the top of too. Used it for a base several times.
WOW cool Kyle, I am going to try that the next time!!!! Again my friend, thank you so much for watching!!!!!!!
@@OlderThanDiertModeling-nx9og you’re very welcome!! I think you’ll really like that paint, my friend.
Cool
Again I want to thank you for commenting!!!!! I added your name to the list for the giveaway!!!!!!
Looking good. Thanks for sharing 😊
WOW Charlie, thanks again for replying!!!!! I appreciate it EVERY time you and other comment!!!!!!! Once again I want to thank you so very much for watching and commenting!!!!
Neat tool. Thanks for sharing. Just subbed to you 😊
WOW!!!!! Thanks so much for your comment!!!!!! I wish I could take credit for "Finding it" but nope, not me!!!! I saw this on Barbatos Rex channel here on TH-cam and thought "dang, how can I as an older, pretty lackadaisical dude, make it easier on me?" LMAO...no, I saw this and only thought "HUH.....that makes getting into small areas, where fat fingers can't get into, so much simpler!!" So..I bought it. Was well worth the money!!!! Again....THANK YOU so much for your comment!!!!!!!!
Nice unboxing
Thank you so very very much!!!!! Every time I work on a video I try my best and think "what can I do better next time!" Comments like yours and I've been a subscriber of yours for a couple of month now, it really helps me out, so once again I say THANK YOU!!!!
Cool tool. 🛠
To be honest...that was my first thought as well!!!!! I have fat fingers and many times I have found it very difficult to get into smaller areas. Now...no more worries!!!!!! It has so many attachment arms that I would be hard pressed to find any areas it could not get into!!!!! Well...maybe on some of the miniatures you paint it might not fit. OH BTW......my best friend who I call my brother "Dennis" has been a 40K fan for well over 3 decades. At the time he purchased every 40K miniature there was, I was surprised that they were all metal!!!!!!!! Since I bought all these tools and paints he is coming over soon and we are going to use my tools and get some new paints, all of his died over 25 years ago lol, and we are going to start painting the ones up he has!!!!!!! So I say again THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS!!!!!!!
Have a great build.
I just checked your channel and holy cow, you have some really excellent content!!!! I just subscribed so I can learn some of your painting ideas and techniques!!! If you see something I do that either you like or make you cringe lol please comment and let me know!!! I'm still so used to the "Old School" way of model building all the while trying out new techniques. There is a learning curve LOL!!!! Thank you so very much for your comment!!!! There is no "Bad" comment if you learn from it!!!!
@@OlderThanDiertModeling-nx9og Thank you so much. I've Subscribed too.
Sorry took so long on my reply. I literally just 15 minutes ago figured out how to find all of my comments lol. I really do appreciate your subscription!!!!!!!!! Keep up YOUR great work!!!!!! I have added your name to my list for my giveaway!!!! You have yourself an awesome day!!!!! Hope you had a great labor day!!!!!
68 here...when I used to go to Woolworths on bridge st in Chippewa Falls Wisconsin...I was forbidden by my mother to spend more than 3.99 for any kit...my how times have changed
LOL, I as well used to go to Woolworths in our town of Bensenville IL. Been through Chippewa Falls many times!!! Thank you so much for your comment. Please keep commenting good or bad!!!! It is the only way I can grow as a channel and a person!!!!! Thank you once again!!!!
I was thinking I was the only model builder that was older than dirt. I’m 75
NOPE!!!!! There are A LOT of us old timers out there lol !!!!! Please comment good or bad. I can only grow as a person and on my channel. I try my best to work every day. But it is hard sometimes. Had 2 failed back surgeries so I really can't sit for more than 15 minutes at a time! BUT, I grin and bear it!!!! All we can do!!! Thank you so much for your comment!!!!!!
I have the same problem, Amazon ups and usps keeps dropping off stuff go figure
My wifey at this point just shakes her head whenever the dogs go nuts when the delivery drivers pull up lol! Thank you for your comment!!! I subscribed to you if I remember correctly a few weeks ago. I try and search model builders like yourself every day. ANY and ALL comments, good or bad help me grow as a builder and a person!!! Thank you for commenting!!!!!
Great stuff, just subbed ya!
HOLY COW!!! Thank you so very much!!! I been a sub of yours for a little bit now!!! Love your vids!!! Any and ALL comments would be greatly appreciated, good or bad!!!! It is the only way I learn and grow!!!! Once again THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!
Awesome kit! I just picked up the Baldwin Corvette and 69' Camaro! I haven't landed the Chevelle yet! If like to see your build it. I subscribed! 😎👍
Any and ALL comments, good or bad will be gratefully appreciated!!!!!!! Let me know if there is something I am missing or what! Thank you so much for subscribing, it is an honor!!!!! NO LIE!!!!
....MAN!!! there's so many cool aftermarket parts & accessories available today to make the hobby easier than in 'our' day...I'm 74...
ABSOLUTLY RIGHT!!!!!! I am having a blast just getting all the new tools and resin parts!!!!!
...when I was a kid there was no way no 'fix' boogered chrome...AMT cars ruled in my day...my two brothers both had the Ford Model T kits - I was more into aircraft & armor but I did build a few cars...a Monogram Deusenberg with 'retractable' headlights...
Don't forget Jo-han, some real gems there (sarcasm sign)
@@Jorel48 ...I remember them...
@@Jorel48 ...I'm almost 75...I AM dirt...
Thank you so much for your comment. I only recently, about 3 weeks ago, subscribed to your channel. As soon as I finish the "Deuce and a half" gun truck I am then onto an M59 and then an M113 build! I haven't shown it yet but I just got in an M60 that will be a very detailed build "hopefully" lol. Again I say...THANK YOU!!!!!
Great Vid.
Thank you so very much!!!!! If you have ANY criticisms of my videos, please let me know!!!!!!! As I state, the only way to learn and get better is by someone criticizing and then giving useful knowledge to make it better!!!!! Again...THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
Some cool stuff there I could really use the chassis and suspension from the funny car kit if you aren't going to use it. Maybe we can do a trade or something?👍
As soon as I get some of the parts I need I will let ya have it!!!!!! No money don't worry about a trade!!!! Just let others know about my channel is all I ask! Send me your info through my E-mail address!!!! theoneandonlywebdancer@gmail.com shipping is on me!!!!!
Cool Tools.👍
I agree, watch Barbatos Rex channel he has some AWESOME tools to show as well as techniques and PRODUCTS!!!!!!!
Gooday mate , here's one more sub for you, where are you located, stay warm mate.
HOLY COW!!!! My #1 bucket list country!!!!!!! I really, REALLY appreciate you sir!!! I live in the USA, Missouri about 21 miles by road and 5 miles by air from Branson, Missouri!!! Where are you located? In Australia, lol?
Next time use a cotton ball to paint the thin thread. Dip in paint and sandwich the thread and pull it through. One or two times and you'll be done.
Wow thanks, never even thought about that!!!!
Man i like the military trucks. I like to stick to 1/32 or bigger. Have fun
I origin airplanes and then went to tally started wayyyyyyy back in the day with WWII aircraft. I then moved into tanks and absolutely loved them!!! My plan is to build armor and vehicles from Vietnam!!!
