I recently subscribed to the magazine and in the last issue (November) it said the next issue is out Friday Dec 17th i have not yet recived it but i have recieved things from ebay that have been sent Friday 1st class.

I know the snow is an issue but i was wondering if anyone else has not recived their issues?

I usually get a complementary issue when placing adds or features but haven't got one yet so assume its due to the weather.

It's playing havoc with our grp'ing just cant get the place warm enough even with the big gas heater on.....:(

Andy, Create a room if you can using plastic sheeting warm that up or once gel coated a mould try and cover it with a cardboard box and blow warm air thru it, you can do the same once layed it up. Don't get it too hot though as it can distort both your mould and the part you are making.


Roll on the summer and go away ice and snow we have had enough know..:(

We've tried a few things like that Mark, i think the main problem is on a night its getting down to -10 / 12 and they just cant take it. Will just have to delays the last few bits till it stops freezing.

Have you tried cobalt accelerator in your gel and resin? You have to be oh so care full to mix it the right way round though as you end up a bit warmer than you really wanted to be...causes a wee chemical bomb you might say:o

non subscriber too, Tesco's supply mine.:D
Nice to see that there was another Saturn spread about the new RX beast in the Haynes roadster, plus the interesting letter from a forum member asking for more roadster related articles, seem the mag are interested in doing this too which i would look forward to seeing.:)
