 Oh man.......That was YOUR house?

 Just playin! That is a pocket full of suck, my friend. I count my lucky stars, I've never had the misfortune of being broken into or robbed(knock on wood). Put the word out to the local pawn shops, maybe you'll get lucky. Best of luck. (you could always go back to "old school"...rattle-can!!!)

Hay Mike I am sorry to hear about what happened to you but at lest no one got hurt....

I have this old Compressor a friend gave me, and it work's.

I would be more then Happy to give it to you if you wanted it. Here are some pics of it, Just let me know and I will have it in the mail to you.

Like I said, it's OLD but it works. I am NOT asking anything for it. Just 1 Modeler to another, if you want it it's yours.....

Thats what I love about this forum, there's always someone here to lend a hand in times of need, whether its a question about masking or giving out a compressor, new or old, matters not.

Mike, I feel for you mate. Theres nothing more upsetting than being invaded by something thats not human. Thats what these people are 'non human'

Sorry Mike, chin up mate

Hay Mike if you think you could plug it in and get it to work I can see what it would cost to ship to you.

I completely symphatize with you Iron Mike. It could have been better if you have just burned out your compressor. Losing stuff to a thief is being violated personally. But hey! think of the bright side. You will soon be using a new compressor and construction will go on again! I look forward to your resuming the JU-88 build.

Woah. Robbed.. That's horrible.. What I don't understand is why they do it? Evil [}:)]

A friend of mine in the USA got robbed aswell.. Lost ALOT of WWII era firearms and militaria, plus his entire re-enactment collection... Man, he was crushed..

 

But I'm glad you'll be getting a compressor and hopefully an Airbrush your way!  The best of luck to you!!

I've had my car broken into twice and once just plain stollen but I've never had my personal space invaded by thieves. You work hard for your hobby and some jerk screws with your stuff like that? I'm sorry that happened.

This place is amazing man modelers helping modelers! Love it.
