To edit your title (And to the rest of you forum-goers, a working editor) -- Hit edit, then "Go Advanced" On the bottom right. Edit the title (up top) and save. Ta-daa! (It's also spelled MJOLNIR, All Caps, as was the Hammer of Thor, the god of thunder, but the caps is merely a formality.)

Also, +1 BAMF for Nil Edge ID's. Kick ass work you've done; Can't wait to see it glassed, bondoed and painted

Protip: For rigidity in the HD pieces, go for cloth and press it into the sharp creases, along with liberal amounts of resin. For Overall stability, at the cost of rigidity and part endurance (they can be dinged really easily), Set the crease to level, pour resin into it, and paint on fiberglass mat or cloth. This method is time-consuming, as you have to wait for the resin to cure before tilting or tipping the piece, or air voids will develop.

Above all else, Have fun doing it!

Thanks cneyrinck! That spelling error really bugging me.
Also, I'll try out your "Protip" with regards to resin/fiberglassing.

[LongShot-X]

OK... let's see if this corrects the spelling error in the thread.

Thread title has been fixed!

Dude that is some of the most beautiful pep work I have ever seen. Keep up the awesome work

Rearanged the garage work area for Resin, bondo, sanding and painting. Used plastic garbage bags for the backdrop. Perfect for the photo shoots.


Will be getting back to the folding and gluing after I have finished pre-cutting and creasing.

That's something I gotta do with my Garage. lol I have one car in the garage already and only enough room just as big as a bathroom to work in. Good idea on the garbage bags, need to start using them to cover my work space.

Your pep work looks awsome by the way.

[LongShot-X]

LOL... I have a car in here too! Had to move it and squeeze it against the wall to free up more room. It (the car) rarely gets used.
As for the garbage bags, there cheap, disposable and work well.

Thanks for the compliment!
