Yep, and everybody wants to make it clear that it's *someone else* who doesn't understand! If the oil isn't bunching at Glendive or Staples, the finger seems to point to Mandan. :-)

Bruce,
I checked the folder and you had a right to complain, it was empty and I just re-reloaded the images.
If they are not found now, please tell me. I had checked after loading them Tuesday

Re: Warpage of Resin Castings (was Virtual RPM Meet?)
For the most part, no. But in some cases, yes.
In my experience,(almost 2000 models built), flat cast kits that warped and were then flattened tend to stay flat if assembled straight away.
