Very nice. Interested to see what you make of the REAL COLOR sets. Might be tempted for a purchase at On-Track.

That's a score for sure John  , so it was you after all who got the last Merkava II  . Got this today, a ceramic scalpel/cutter knife  . It's blade is supposed to last 10 x longer steel blades, and cuts everything we need it to  . It's a bit pricey, cost me €20. But if it holds up as long as it says, then it's worth the extra cash  . Shall give it a go later on on some test bitz  .

More nice buys here guys!
Be great to see a full road test of that cutter Paul - how it behaves on sheet styrene of various thicknesses....interestingly enough I kept track of the blades used during Big Wind and I got thru 6 x double-ended Stanley Blades and 5 x No 11 Swann Mortons - wish I hadn't done it now!!!
