Interesting video for me. 

Not being familiar with the black art of scratch building, what struck me was how you used a dremel fitted to a work stand (I just regarded them as a hand tool), and the use of styrene blocks to make body mounts.

Probably all bread and butter stuff to scratchers, and I must have read about the techniques on here before, but fascinating to see in video form.

Jeremy, thanks so much for watching and for your wonderful post!

The Dremel tool is mounted on a 'Dremel drill press' and a ninety degree final drive attachment added to maximize the 'hands-free' aspect.

Square polystyrene stock works quite well as mounting posts, I discovered this by chance, (square stock was all I had at one point) and continue to use it in this fashion.

I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video!

More to come!

Thanks
Thankyoublue
