You'll find that Plastic Pooping Robots are much like cats, you don't acquire them - they acquire YOU.

Re: Chevy K30 U-haul Maxi-mover 1973-75

The bags are about 1"x2"x1/4"-ish, and are modeled after the old style of paper bag that was sewn shut...

"A stack of moving boxes would be great to fill up the trucks." A color printer, some appropriately colored paper, and you can too can become a scale moving box supplier.

I got my "narrow" tires last night, the wide tires are apparently still on a slow boat from somewhere. I originally thought these were 76mm OD tires, they aren't, they're 70mm OD. The Bruder tires...

Re: Shovel mechanics
Your math is a little off. 1 cubic yard IS 36"x36"x36", but 1/2 of a cubic yard is 18"x36"x36". 18"x18"x18" would be 1/8 of a cubic yard.
1 cubic yard is 46,656 cubic inches, so 1/2 of a cubic...

Re: 1/10 caterpillar 140h motor grader 3d printed
How long did it take you to get the openings in the engine covers cleaned up and ready for paint? I know you've said you sand until you're happy with things, but that would have driven me bonkers.
