Sanding Sticks
Hi Gents, this is my first forum post for ANY site, so I hope I have got it right. I have just got back into modelling (kits) after about a 30 year gap, and was extremely pleased when, searching youtube, I came across Paul's series of modelling tips using the Airfix Me Bf109. It is this that prompted me to register with ISM. Things have changed a lot in 30 years, and there are far more manufacturers and kits available than you could possible wish for, and the quality has improved no end. I have one question though, probably Paul could answer this straight away, where do you buy the sanding and polishing sticks mentioned in part 3 or 4 of your videos? Also, I know it was mentioned that it is no longer available in the UK, but where can I get the Tamiya extra thin cement from? Thanks for the excellent site and videos, I am currently viewing through some kit reviews on youtube to decide my next build.
