Alright, group hug guys.

Steve,

Thanks for the kind words to Jeff as that is what makes this forum so great.
We can agree to disagree but still be friends and share our ideas in this hobby.

Jeff,

If you leave I am coming down to So Cal and give ya a whoopin' young man! Big Smile [:D]

Then we can go to Coast Airbrush and spend some money. Laugh [(-D]

C'mon Woodbeck, get over it dude. I'm sorry. I would hate to see you give this up. Heck, I'll admit it, my patience ran thin and I took it out on you. You know from a lot of the threads that I got a good scolding from some of the guys, I deserved it. Give this old grouch another chance and stick around, Mike is right, we need you..........accept my sincere apologies,please.

Regards,
Steve

Chas,

The sad part is that you or can't hardly get any government help if we wanted it, but someone coming here from another country can. Confused [%-)]

I guess our ancestry in this country doesn't mean squat anymore although our ancestors built this great country with their blood, and sweat.

Chas,

I am not sure about my Irish half but my Dutch half from my dad's side goes way back also. Our first ancestor here from Holland was Laurens Andriessen who changed his last name to what mine is...Van Buskirk.
He died in 1693/94 so I am assuming he arrived at New Amsterdam in the 1650's. I can't believe my relatives have been in the U.S. for over 350 years. [:0]

Chas,

Very nice work buddy.
You are an Irishman too? Well that explains it then lad!
If we were talking in person we would probably have had a fist fight and then made up and bought another round. Laugh [(-D]

You gotta love them Irish.

I wouldn't think so as those are the most toxic paints out there and can enter the body through the eyes, nose, mouth and any other opening they find their way into. Nasty stuff, but they sure are beautiful when they are dry.

QUOTE: beleive it or not but this Dealer show'ed us on film where a guy from the company Drank some of this stuff to show that its not bad for you.. I did see the film today but you still could not get me to drink it :)

I wouldn't call that a very wise thing to do. Drinking it and inhaling it are two different things anyhow. I wonder what Styrene (Gip) would have to say about this?
He is an Industrial Hygentist and knows these things very well.
I am sure we will hear his opinion if he reads this.

Do you have any photos of things you have painted with the Dupont Hot Hues and Horizon colors? I am curious as to how they look? Are they uros?

Mike

Yes Mike i have used Automotive Acrylic Uro Color and Clears on models here is my link to my folder.
http://public.fotki.com/shawCustom/shaw_show_cars_for_2004/page2.html

The 33 Chevy is done in Hot Huges Red and the 41 Chop Top Willys is also done using Hot Huges Yellow over Organic Green Base.
On the first page the Blue 37 Ford that my Daughter is doing is done in Horizon Color its Shaw Blue (under her contract) over Silver base. Now I do take all pertection i can and so does my Daughter from this stuff. The Horizon Color comes in cans so its a little easyer on the health but not much.
I also see that you are Irish so am i.. Im what they call Black Irish and if any one knows history they can tell ya what that means. (no im not black its a slang name for people that had family in the first boats over from the old country)

Have a great day my Friend.

Real glad to see this arguement resolved in a gentlemanly manner. I've followed this thread without butting in, but I feared we might have another Blackwolf situation. With Pixelater MIA, Saltydog going AWOL soon, and the loss of many other great members, the Forum can't afford to lose valued members like you Mike. Glad cool heads prevailed in the end Big Smile [:D]

Thanks Steve.
Everyone here is valuable to this forum and even us "veterans" learn something daily from the good folks on this forum.
Sometimes we are just headstrong or get caught in a bad mood, or take things the wrong way and a dispute starts.
I appologize for doing that yesterday.
Chas and I are friends now I think. Wink [;)]

Mike has posted many threads that have helped countless modelers, including myself. He is obviously of a mind to help others, to give rather than receive, is a direct staement to his character. He has patiently repeated advice to new/old members who are either not aware that they can topic search the forums, or are unwilling to do so. Regardless of any other consideration, this commands the respect and thanks due. I'm glad the parties involved can move forward, but I must say that animosity in any form has no place here.

I hope we don't loose guys like Mike, Music City, and the like due to unwarranted comments posted in the forums. We can all agree to disagree, but doing it tactfully and with dignity is the key to keeping the forums alive and well, for without the knowledgeable members contributions, this web site really has no purpose.

MusicCity,

My apologies if I am in error as to the reasons for the changes, however they seemed to correspond to the time when there was an awful lot of non-modelling stuff appearing here. Perhaps I am making inaccurate conclusions. In any case, I actually prefer the new organization and guidelines. I was finding that the old forum was becoming the sounding board for far too many political, religious, and very off-topic discussions.

I frequent this forum to share and gain great modelling advice from a very diverse group of people from many countries. That's the beauty of it. We all enjoy this hobby (that's why we're here) and are fortunate to have such a great place in which to meet. I am glad that MikeV and SCH3 seem to have resolved their issue.

Let's move on and have fun.

Jim Smile [:)]
