| LOL!
Did you cut the hockey tape off along the edge of the CD, or did you wrap it underneath? I can see problems with either method. | |

| Very nice. It's hard to find hockey tape in my "local" sporting goods stores though.
Oh, and yes - CD's are surprisingly durable and difficult to snap in half. | | "Ah, to be young again... and also a robot." | |

What? You mean waste the free skeet shooting rounds companies are so nice to leave laying around with the absurd text, "Please, take one." I always oblige! One whole display... thank you!

Heya squarescales.... you might want to try this (I did and it worked pretty good)
When you glue the big monster's legs on the base they unfortunately go kind of round. If you make a very slight cut in the top of the joints, they bend and look much better (you can see slight white lines in the pic of my scorpian from the cuts, but it gets rid of the rounded legs.... and you probably didn't notice till I pointed it out anyway! | | Join the Eternal Skirmish Campaign.

| | Thanks for the tip galneweinhaw, I'll give that a try! I was also thinkng of shaving off a bit from the bottoms of the legs to make a flatter surface when glueing them down. | | Noble Sage | |
