"I started laying new flooring in my house......" Excellent!!! Sounds interesting..... What Cateory is it in fella? Nems , its laminate . Cant afford the real wood . I have 1600 square feet plus the underlayment . It took some figuring to get started . This house is over hundred yrs old and has been added onto several times so it was difficult to find two opposing walls that were semi straight to start from . I got that done with some measurements and a handy little laser . I finally have three rows of 33 ft. length laid down now . |

Carl,
How did you glue the zimm? I used white glue for the big panels on my Stug IV....then some CA glue on spots that came un-glued.
Paul
PS Looks nice....I noticed some specs on the zimm rear left panel, is that glue residue? You can remove that with Isopropyl Alcohol.

I used c.a. gel on the zimm panels this time . I have used Tacky Glue on some p.e. where there is a possibility of the glue oozing out to the sides . Its water soluble like white glue .I'll check those specs on the rear panel and give the Isopropyl a try . Thanks . |

Not sure what these four "c" shaped devices are called . They were on the p.e. tree so I assembled them . They look like they would be the clamps that fit around one of the rw 61 rockets so the hoist could lift them . Twas fun making them look banged up .  |
