So many times someone posts a great link, I watch, them immediately forgot where I saw that video. New folder now for the video with Mrs. Doubtfire making the tufts. What a great idea. If you makes bases you gotta make that static applicator. Works great. As Gary has shown.

Awesome job on the tools! Are you sure you didn't use real wood!?  The base is looking sweet too! |

Hmmm, This build is somewhat 'pleasing' to the eye Holy CRAP!  What a stunner! I mean, seriously, this has really turned into something VERY special indeed. Incredible attention to detail - epic! It's a 3D Canvas and you have painted a masterpiece my good Sir There's one thing I really love - I know it's only a small touch but it's what separates the good from the great. I've seen it done many times but this is by far the best - I'm of course referring to the woodgrain effect that you have obtained on the tools and the Jack Block. The Axe handle is exceptional! This is something I'm still working at doing and it will come but I doubt it will ever look this good - may I enquire as to how you attack the tool handles and what paints you use? Looking forward to more - keep us up-to-date Gary! Well done dude! Top work! Ben |

I thought I heard somebody screaming 'Medic! Medic! Medic!' earlier and I didn't realize it was you. Take it easy... no lifting even those model kits for a while.

Looks like the Coreman is going to be busy - I started my long planned jogging and general fitness/weight loss programme a couple of Wednesdays ago and although I invested in a spectacular pair of really good running shoes and actually had my running style looked by a pro whilst I ran on a treadmill to ensure I got the right shoes as I've had serious problems with my knees in the past including two kneecap dislocations (ouch!) I felt that after 5 years my knees were back up to speed and were ready for some light jogging. I'm now waiting on an X-Ray and the doctor thinks I've at least done something very unpleasant to my right knee and my left isn't much better - even my bloody back is starting to hurt now and apparently that's due to the fact I'm walking like a Penguin to ease the pain  Should have stuck to the power walking and push bike! I feel about 90 years old at the minute - darn knees! Hope the back gets better asap Gary as I cannot wait to see this build complete! Ben |

Wow Ben! Messed up knees are no fun...I used to play competitive tennis and every now and then they will 'remind' me of all the stress I put them through. Hope it's not too serious and you recover quickly!

Hope it's not too serious and you recover quickly! Cheers guys, What worries me more is what they will be like when I'm 50 and have horrific arthritis or something - an operation is definately on the cards, that's for sure! Ah well, this is probably the wrong thread to moan about my woes on! Lets hope Gary gets his back sorted as I was want to see this build completed! Cheers fellas and get well ASAP Gary! Ben |

what they will be like when I'm 50Brother... you don't want to know.. I'm 57 and have had torn cartilage operations in each knee and one has it again. Starting to get the arthritis deal too. i have o say the insets I got for the shoes help enormously. But those 1st few steps when I stand up... talk about feeling like you're 90

Hey bro! hope you`re feeling better! You should definitly go train in the pool like I told you, to get your back muscle stronger and relief some stress on your spine. When I say train it is Very light Gary just swiming around ok?
