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.
I love puttering with gears

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
John
