    Help with restoring bakelite

    SweetieStar, I have used Brasso on Bakelite with great results. It provides a great gloss. I'm not sure about the other product you mentioned so I can't comment. Talbot

    Golden Era Aircraft

    Liking the heck out of this thread Couple from FS9: Apols for the jaggies. Just upgraded to a newer box and haven't got the hang of the nvidia settings. Let me dig out some FSX screen shots.

    Student Jalopies of the 1940s

    That cartoon, and "The Three Little Bops" would have to rate as my all time favourites. Stan Freberg and Shorty Rogers together, wow! "Suzy the Blue Coupe" is a great watch as well.

    Underwater adhesive tape?

    I use 3M aluminium flashing when my reactor needs work. The bitumin really seems to keep those pesky coolant water leaks in check.

    Funniest scenes in cinema history

    Not to mention the flat tire at the funeral ceremony! Many Tati lovers here. I'd love to get my hands on the original French release. Some 30 min was cut from it for release outside France:mad: . You don't have a copy showing a scene where he has difficulty with a deck chair do you?

    Perfectly natural. If you have to explain it, there's no point.

    Goodwill buys

    First time I did this my wife looked at me very strangely until I explained myself! Worth also checking out the glassware and miscellany. Last week I picked up a set of 6 cut crystal drinking tumblers (think single malt advertisement) for 0.99 each. Very pleased, they make all the...

    Austin, TX Vintage Shopping???

    I'm sure some Austinites will chime in... Last time I was there the tourist office published brochures showing where all the vintage stores were. Let me see if I can find it at home if no one jumps in. Talbot

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Beautiful item! That strap looks fabulous with that crisp dial :eusa_clap I have seen some instances where 18mm straps have been used on 16mm lugs to give the watch a heavier appearance. The straps were notched 1mm on each side. Could be effective depending on the...

    Vintage watch repair

    Funny, my watch guy is a bit the same. I asked him if he'd mind if I referred other people to him. He said no, he had all the work he needed. Tight knit community. Try finding a god redial service[huh]

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    Shangas, thanks for the info. Good watch guys are hard to find. I remember stumbling across a solid gold Unicorn watch at an opp shop in Blackburn back in the late 80's. I took it to the local jeweler, and he nearly had a heart attack. He had worked on it in 1966!
