So not happy to see someone then....

I use a slip these days and I don't think I could go back to a wallet, still I think these are cool, a friend of mine uses one.

 

haha, sorry i dont conform to ***** highstreet primark fashion mate!
I dress somewhere between skinhead and punk, but if im off out of town, sometimes the full boots and braces!

Doubt ill be using the camo trousers to much as i just collect different camo, just something i do.
Other flecktarn i have is the Danish M84 flecktarn, very effective!

bomber jacket on the other hand ill be using all the time, like i did my last one.

 

where did you get it if you don't mind me asking...

 

iiyama 24" ProLite E2481HS-B1



It's not the absolute greatest monitor ever made, but my 22" Samsung decided to have a breakdown and turn half the panel red, so I needed a replacement urgently.

Image quality is reasonable- feels a tiny bit washed out but that might just be because the Samsung was over-saturated. That said, the display itself is really attractive- matt black and with a really thin bezel (7mm on the sides). I wish the stand wasn't so boring looking so might have to look into a monitor arm, but otherwise very pleased for £140.

 

12.8cm PaK 40 L/61 projectiles and shells (3HE and 3APCR projectiles)

 

As a Canadian, at first I couldn't tell what these were.

 

Here you go buddy

 

What scale is that? 1/35th? Pretty neat that there's such detail.

 

To be fair most people who saw them at work couldn't work out what they were either

Yep 1/35 scale got some styrene tubes etc coming so I can make more. Getting bits together to model this and do some interior details.

 

Looks like it would be a pain in the arse, literally.

 

Tamiya 1/350 Bismark with display stand # 78013

 

Me and a friend used to find discounted battleship models, build and paint them. Then once a year when his field flooded set them free and take shots us them with our air rifles from his bedroom window : P I wish I was a teenager again

 

This arrived yesterday. Its a unused Carrera Subway Zero frame, which is a 700c variant of their subway range, that has horizontal dropouts, so this bike is going to be a fixie.

 

Why should being an adult stop you?

 

It's still weak though.

QUARK COIN IS THE FUTURE

 

Aha, said friend is under the thumb and isn't allowed out to play any more : /

 

Especially as now there are plenty of guides on YouTube on how to make exploding pellets...

 

Funny you should say that....I have an Indestructibles project log for making such novelties. I used to be a right pyro back in the day : P

I glued some primer caps to the end of the pellets!

 

I went with crushed match heads in a hollowpoint. Quite a nice pop on a hard target

 

wouldn't be hard to hit the Bismark!
