Man seeing this really makes me want to finish mine, I want to finish it in "Thumper" markings but can't seem to find any, but my other prospect is "Dauntless Dotty" for which I do have decals.

Leon,

Those props move some air don't they! When Monogram first came out with this kit I stuck a prop on my Dremel tool mandrel--it was really efficient until a blade broke loose.

Steve,

I sent you a PM about the Thumper decals.

Scott

Hah.. that is funny Scott.., my brother and I did the same thing, but would run it in reverse.., and the props would fly up and bounce off the ceiling. My mother hated us for that as the spinning props would leave marks all over the ceiling!

Mom told me I'd "put an eye out with that thing!" She seemed to be especially intelligent when my contraption shed a blade at 5,000 rpm. I thought the Dremel was gonna take my hand off! :shock:
