Thought I might try to start something with a new topic.

While taking my arthritis medicine...I'm 47 and don't laugh, you'll be there oneday if not already...I noticed the space between the two blisters (on a free sample pack my doctor gives me) the pattern looked alot like 35th scale anti-skate plating. It's not exact but, the space between the two is about 1 inch and will probably do just right when partially covered by equiptment in the floor of a model.

Just thought y'all might be interested.

It is so cool when you discover scale model applicable materials in places you would never expect.

I have been using this type of stuff for years. It is not exact but with equipment place on it it is very convincing

Too bad the Vioxx didn't work for my arthritis! But still a cool idea!

Sorry to hear that...works like a charm with me...maybe the Celebrex would be more for you. I don't do a thang for me but, you never know.

The same kind of stuff is used to seal my baby;s tins of cream, they come in a big circular piece (as the opening of the tin)and it is hard enough to use and seems good

Yes good idea. !! And true you never know where you'll find that piece you never thought of.
I'm not 47 and my bones hurt too, but I guess I deserve what I got. Half bionic man. LOL
