HOW TO MAKE A SCALE MODEL TARP
How to make a scale model tarp from the cool little divider paper I ship with decals when you get 3 or more … fair warning the audio when I go to the table is a little louder than the first part so sorry about that.

DAVE’S DECALS WORLDWIDE
As you may know I ship globally and I’ll do for US$3.00 or FREE if you buy over $30.00 or decals or detail parts – something this bites me in the butt but hey you’re worth it!
I was updating my shipping map and I have now shipped to all 50 states and if my count is right 41 countries … I’d like to thank you all and please tell your friends about Dave’s Decals – this is only some of the dots I still need to update some more.
TWO NEW BUSINESS SETS COOTER’S LIQUOR and WHISTLE STOP CAFE
I have two new sets out this week, Cooter’s Liquor which I made for a O Scale build article I’m writing that hopefully will appear in more of the train magazines (I’ll let you know) and the Whistle Stop Cafe which I also made for this build but opted not to use due to the size of the kit. Since this is a smaller kit in O Scale these should kit easily on a HO Scale kit too. Remember the GREEN GRID is 1/2″ so you can get a idea of the size of each image.
CHECK THESE OUT EXTRA SMALL RACING GARAGE DECALS
Well I made a set at about 1/2″ wide per image for 1:18, 1:24 1:25 scale model cars – since racing decals come in all sizes I figure there is a little wiggle room .. well a friend asked if I could make them in HO Scale at about 1/8″ and 1/16″ wide max – I said I don’t know I can try, so pushing the limits of the file sizes and ability of the printer. I pushed these to 9600 dpi which makes for a huge file to print something really small and this is what I got …
these sets are literally the size of a postage stamp, but I think the detail came out pretty good to be so freaking tiny.
HYDROCAL BUILD PART FOUR – ROOF, WINDOWS, LIGHTING AND DETAILING
The last of the build videos covering roof constructions, roof details, installing and detailing windows, lighting and detailing.
(SOLD) THE FINISHED PRODUCT OF THE YOUTUBE VIDEO BUILD SERIES …
Did a series of videos building models, it was me first shot at it and frankly I thought they all pretty much sucked and I really need to redo them on another one later on … this one like all of them will be up for sale soon and in the shop. Have a look …
Here is a short video of the lights …
