Getting my feet wet back around here and have missed alot. This whole ordeal with our sons truck has really thrown alot of things behind around here. Benchtime and forum time has suffered as a result but I'm making a bit of a comeback.

I hate it when life just jumps in! Our son finally got his pacemaker installed and the steroids and antibiotics seem to be doing their jobs. He said he had no idea how bad he was feeling before.
Hope the situation with your son’s truck works out.

Great originality to this Lyle! It looks great so far!
Re: AMT 1/25 Fruehauf 40' Box Trailer
Got the hoses on, but those "springs" were a no-go. too flimsy and my hands would not work to attach them May go by AutoZone and see about some bulbs to get the filaments from...I don't know.
"Lost" a wheel piece. I know it is on the desk of no return..somewhere... but, yet to be discovered. Perfect piece to try casting a part again. It is a one sided cast - My supplies were no good, except for the RTV. So, we bought more. Twice. I can't read labels. Turns out I needed it anyway.
So, here is the casting
Here is a family photo
And here is where they go. drops in the opening on the rims.
