Mark II Work Bench Complete - Time to start Modeling
I have been without a permanent work bench for about three years now. A couple of trips to the land of Ikea and some persistence, here is what I have come up with. Finally completed this afternoon. Now to unpack the tools and start building some models. Never though I would miss the smell of Tenax 7R.

Trees. If you need one, you’ll probably need a hundred. And you’ll need to find a way to represent different species too. Miles Hale shares a variety of products and methods for replicating trees.
Recommendations for Masking Structures Before Airbrushing?
I am in need of recommendations as to which masking products would be my best choice for masking structures to paint.
Thanks in advance for recommendations.

Insurance Idea
As I would be going to the States and Canada for awhile I thought that I
had better think about insurance for my trains as I have a fair amount of
money invested in them, so I decided to photograph all of them so that I
have a record for myself and the insurance company if needed. I placed a
piece of track on the table and photographed the first one, it didn't look
so good, something was missing, it needed some sort of background, so
I started to think what could I use, so I came up with this idea.
Question about Testors cement
For many years I have been using the Testors glue in the blue tube for assembling styrene kits. Recently I have been working on some styrene kits and the glue only seems to glue the parts together. It does not seem to fuse the plastic like it use to. I bought a tube of the red glue and it seems to do the same. The only difference is that the glue in the red tube dries faster.
Has the formulation of Testors glue changed within the last year?
