How To: Test Fitting and mocking up parts

[@curtisboxill-boxmansbuilds2980]

That's great you shared your tips!,to often i see people complaining of poor fit on kits,without test fitting,and primer and paint add thickness to parts and i don't think they realize that.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thanks! I have had that happen to me a few times too. So I learn the hard way sometimes it takes 3-4 times to learn it thou!

[@michaelhendrix1636]

Good tips. There is a putty called milliput you can get off Amazon that may work just as well. I use it for wood turning

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thanks. I have not used milliput.

[@neiljumpinjackflash7551]

The tips are great, keep them coming. Do you have any tips for doing detail work on the 'tubs', I find trying to get good results with the tub frustrating. So glad they separated the interiors into components.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thank you! I haven't thought about the interior much. I feel it is a week point for me but I keep trying different things.

Hahahahaha! Hi little buddy! Man it’s been many many moons since I’ve had one that little around, course I’m an old man now, a Papaw. lol! Nice work on the engine, looking good buddy!

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Hensley’s Hobbies Lol! I’m almost 47 and he is almost 4. He is our only child and we waited to have him. I gat asked every now and then if he is our grandchild. It does not offend me as it comes with the age. I have thought about doing a video of his interruptions!

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

The Muscle Car Modeler - yeah you oughta do a video of that , I believe everyone wouldn’t mind! I was 42 when my youngest daughter came along, so I know what you mean, but cherish them while their little because they grow up quick, seems like! I’ve got 5 kids and everyone of them are grown, my youngest 3 are 25 and younger but My two oldest boys are 38 and 39 now, pretty soon they’ll be having grandkids of their own and I’ll be a great grandpa! Geez! Oh well, it’s life! Take care buddy and stay safe! Peace ✌🏻

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Hensley’s Hobbies Thanks. I think I will! He has had me film him and he is pretending to do what I do. It’s great!

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

The Muscle Car Modeler - Hahahahaha! Yeah their something else at that age, like I said, cherish him now at that age and size because before you know it he’ll be grown!

[@bobcarey1035]

I use Poster Putty for doing the same thing. Can get it any place that school or office supplies

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Very cool. I don't know very many that do something like this.

[@squishycakes9087]

doesn't the modeling clay leave a residue on the part.?

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

It can. It has a small amount of oil in it. Much like your fingerprint.

[@motorhead1964]

Great now i have to make another trip to michaels or JoAnns ; )

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

I know, Right!

[@BIGJIM1934]

Nice tips. More bang for your buck? I use a product called apoxie sculpt. Works just the same. You can even smooth it out with a wet finger. Dries hard and it's sandible.

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Sounds the same as this!

[@scooterdoughmas3012]

oh buy the way your scaring me taking that car apart old resin breaks to easy

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

You have to be carful and I have had a few break.

[@charlescampbellii8193]

Right on, they grow up toooo fast

[@TheMuscleCarModeler]

Thanks! I know right!
