We start by answering questions from our listeners on a host of different fine-scale subjects, and we go off on a tangent of everything else from there! Yep!

It’s Friday fellow fine scale freaks!

So that means another episode of the Bench Time Podcast! Number 60 to be exact! And this weekend we give you a mish-mash of everything! We start by answering questions from our listeners on a host of different fine-scale subjects, and we go off on a tangent of everything else from there!

Yep! Being kept up inside for the Winter has about taken its toll on these two schmucks and their mics (which we talk about too!). But we discuss the great results we have had from using the Hunterline Stains and Pigment products, A new scratch-built rooftop billboard that Todd has designed for his latest structure featuring a photo of the actress during WWII Hedy Lamar.

We then get into the AK Interactive products that Brett has been working with for his new ho-two and review videos on our HO Scale Customs YouTube channel.

He shares a little with us about the Dry and Wet Crackle Mud Terrain Series effects and his awesome results with the AK Asphalt Terrain Series mediums for making Asphalt roads!

We then move on to using medicine bottles for storing stains and pigments and how we will be reviewing many new or “new to us” products and materials to help create scenery and structure building.

Of course, we can’t forget our discussions of the first week of our Live Facebook Group build together a project that started this past week and how much fun it has been if not a bit hectic for us, keeping us on our toes!

Another awesome week is in the books folks! And you can listen at your workbench or around the layout as you work! (Is it really even work?? Really?)

Keep on building and Spring is right around the bend!!
