Re: Shipping Potatoes
When that doesn't work, paste the entire list into a text editor, and save it as plain text in a .csv file; open the .csv file in whatever spreadsheet program you use (I use Libre Office on Mac OS X

Re: PLASTIC CEMENTS
I’ll agree with Scott. MEK is the fastest but it flashes quickly and the parts need to be in contact prior to application. Testor’s is slow working. Use it only in areas where you need more

Hi, Bill
I don't know of any 'instant' way to bond styrene- even ACC takes a few seconds. I use MEK. It's as fast as anything else I know about.

Re: Shipping Potatoes
I tried pasting the data into Excel, but it all comes in on the same column. Apparently Clark used the space bar instead of the tab key, so the only way to sort the data by date is to retype it in

Or... think of a ship in a bottle. Maybe the bus was assembled inside the car and the windshield
was the last thing to be applied. ;-)

Re: wooden matchsticks...
10" x 10" in HO ??? That's a BIG match stick! Most of them are far smaller.
But the cheapest source by far is TOOTHPICKS. They come in a variety of sizes and shapes

Some of these busses were so wide it was impossible to exit the bus when inserted, so it may have been pushed in and pulled out.
Note the mirrors are also removed.

But probably they would start with something a bit closer to size than a 10x10”?
