Crumbs, Ken! I think everyone ought to be made to write their postings in blank verse:). Please note folks that obviously I was only joking about my attitude to Steven Hustad's builds. In fact, it is from the likes of him and Robert Karr (Where's he been of late?) that I receive the majority of my inspiration. Not that I've managed to reach those heights but they certainly give me lots of ideas and a notion of what is possible. For one thing, Hustad's WW2 Japanese stuff got me interested in that area - a dubious accomplishment on his part, some would claim.:) I think when I look closely at Hustad's latest German bomber, what strikes me is the huge effort that has gone into it. I'm sure this must have taken him a while to build, and I'm willing to bet that just like anyone else, he made mistakes on the way and had to things over. Further, he obviously takes great care and has a lot of patience and perserverance. Sure there's a lot of talent involved but at least as important is tenacity.

I found Luedemann does a resin kit, but thought there was at lease one other company who also produced this beastie in resin, and another who produced it as a vac. On to a bigger point, I thought there was a page on the mailing list web site that listed aircraft with all known kits and scales. I seem to recall it was outdated, but now I can't even find it. I think this is still a valuable resource, as I started two database of my own; one for kits I currently have in the closet, and another for kits I want. Both include the kit manufacturer, and the 'want' database includes space for three distributors with their price. I am overwhelmed with the number of aircraft currently available in different media. I myself would rather purchase an injection kit over a resin kit, and a resin kit over a vac, if I can find it. Ergo, the reason for my lists. So I am asking if this information would be useful to anyone else, and if so, would the web gurus give their blessing. I think once the major work of compiling a current/past list is completed, which I could accomplish eventually, updating the list from subscriber posts on new kits would be rather easy. Stuart L.

Are they mixable? How is this different from Elmers white glue? First, acrylic means based on a specific chemical: 2-propenoic acid (H2C=CH-CO2H) - that is very reactive on the carbon-carbon double bond. Most of the time, we are talking about an 'acrylate' compound, where the hydrogen on the -CO2- group is replaced by a carbon chain (ethyl, propyl, butyl, etc.). Whatever this group, the polymerization primarily comes from the carbon-carbon double bond of the acrylic part. I say primarily, because there are tricks that can be played with using 'co-polymer' agents, such as 1,4 - butadiene, divinyl benzene, vinyl alcohol, etc. These change the nature of the 'acrylic' in various ways, making it harder or softer, more flexible or more rigid. 'Plexiglass' is one type of acrylic - so is Future. Most simple non-hide glues, like Elmer's, are based around Polyvinyl acetate or "Polyvinyl alcohol". The Acetate is Acetic Acid (H3C-CO2H) based, but with a -HC=CH2 group replacing the H on the -CO2- group. When polymerized, the acetate portion can be removed fairly simply, which leaves the "Polyvinyl alcohol" (vinyl Alcohol itself cannot be isolated because it rearranges to the more stable acetaldehyde). Your glue is based on acrylic acid. When made, some other monomer was mixed into the acrylate backbone of the polymer (co-polymer). It is mixed with something that it does not dissolve in but forms a congealed 'creamy' mixture with. Other examples of emulsions are mayonnaise and whipped cream. I would bet that a polyvinyl acetate or alcohol polymer is 'blended' in. Both polyvinyl acetate - based and acrylic polymers are considered 'living polymers.' This means that they are already polymers, but can react with fresh monomer, another polymer chain, or air or moisture to extend themselves. Some acrylics can be 'capped' or the polymer can just be left in this living state. This continuing set of reactions is what is happening when the acrylic paint dries, or the glue bonds. Most of what it happening is called 'crosslinking,' where reactions occur that produce more of a net than a set of chains, or 'surface bonding' where the ever-present oxide or hydroxide layers on surfaces, or the moisture that is physically associated with them, react to tie the polymer to the surface. If both ends are doing that, say to the natural cellulose hydroxyl (alcohol) groups of two different pieces of wood, you have a glue. Add to that the fact that the chains are all tangled together like a plate of sticky spaghetti, and you can get some very strong glues.

Are they mixable? How is this different from Elmers white glue? The main difference between the acrylic glue and acrylic paint is in formulation - different groups on the acrylate molecule, different co-polymers, different ratios of ingredients in making the polymer/mixture. Just like Ethyl Alcohol and Methyl Alcohol are very similar simple alcohols, but have different biological effects, simple changes in the groups added to the acrylate make very different polymers. There is also 'methacrylate' as a basis, which differs by being 2-methyl-2-propenoic acid based. It is a lot like developing alloys of metals, but with more ability to vary the ingredients as well as the ratios. As to whether they are mixable, try it, because there are a lot of things that can work one way or not (e.g., the Tamiya 'Acrylic' paints vs. Future 'Acrylic' ) and I have very little to go on without doing the experiment, in this case. > >TIA YAWATF >sp >**************************************************************************** >*** >There is something inherently warped about a society that forces it's >modelers to work for a living.
