 When
looking back on "the time you got hooked on the hobby", one often
remembers an article, mentor or clinic that was the moment. I have to
say these DVD's hooked my neighbor. And they hooked him good. I am
completely amazed by them too. Who'd have thunk it, Jim a model railroader.
But
that's what happened and I can not get rid of him now. Thanks Joe, this
is supposed to be a solitary hobby, isn't it? Well, the guys at the Club
liked it, Jim liked it - heck me and the Boy watched it a few times. Now,
I am not one of those replay junkies. I get bored quick, but Joe's DVDs
really get ya. Each project I have done in the last two months has
given me a reason to watch a clip or two. The dirt roads, zip texturing
ingredients, right down to "what was that website ?"... |

When Ron gave me these DVD's to watch and review, I had no idea what I was in for. In this set are 4 DVD's, equaling 7 hours. It was almost information overload! In this package Darryl Huffman takes the viewer through a complete scratch build of an old-time miner's bar, from design and planning to final assembly and weathering. |

During the “Dark Ages” of model railroading, distressing a building’s walls required a lot of tedious and hand-cramping work. In order to make the finish on the structure more closely represent wood, the modeler would show the impressions nails leave, when driven into wood. |

Sometimes you need specialized tools to improve your finished product. I found this to be true. I needed some nice tweezers and searched for a good supplier. CML Supply stood out the most for me. CML's selection of tools is unique compared to traditional hobby tools and the prices are very reasonable. I will be releasing a series of these reviews in the next two weeks. We will showcase other suppliers as well in the future. If you need one of these let CML know Ron sent ya... |
