They don't know they're born, tcoch!

Ooooh, the Exorcist. Local Sisters player brought one down. I, being the clumsy sod that I am, accidentally knock it off the table, (it being a top-heavy lump of metal with a smooth plastic bottom on a smooth plastic table didn't help.) Worst part is that I instinctively reach out to catch it and end up smacking it against the side of the table. The entire top assembly fell to pieces. :|

Former staffer and local Sister's player filled his with sand.

No. Really. He did.

Worked though - but required periodic top ups, as the sand had a habit of leaking out.

Model Train Shops sell a thing called Liquid Gravity, its basically little balls of lead in a pourable resin, its great

[Mr Mystery]

Can't sell that round here. The local oiks would probably try smoking/injecting/sniffing/all three it.

I've got one of the 'newer' metal dark elf hydras, currently being used as my cronos pain engine. (I'm in the process of sculpting armour all over it and Dinobot-style headguns.) I gave up on pinning the thing because the pins need to be as least a centimetre deep to hold that much metal. I've glued it together with two-part epoxy glue instead. Seems to be working well.

Most of my metal models ended up with two part epoxy on. Handy gap filler as well when it sets.

yeah my war wagon ended up with araldite to glue it together, super glue just didn't cut it.

any of the old metal dragons really, the high elf and dark elf ones were a nightmare too. I made all three elf types, sucker for punishment that I am.

[Mr Mystery]

On the subject of metal models.....

Having to figure it out for yourself that many still have mould release agent on them, which mucks up your gluing attempts.

Many hours of wailing and gnashing of teeth could've been saved.

[Psychosplodge]

What? I never realised this. This explains everything.

[Mr Mystery]

Yup. Treat it like Resin and you'll get on a bit better.

Remembered another one....

Metal/plastic Hybrid blisters (and funnily enough, Genestealer Hybrids at that) coming with the wrong arms - without the relevant WD, we had no idea.

Should've had this sprue
