Default Scale tool box - first styrene build

Haven't touched plastic models or styrene since I was a kid, so this is a little rough, but was a fun project. Next version will have an opening lid and tray.

Ut OH!!!

You went and dun did it now....



You opened the door to STYRENE FEVER !!!!!


It's starts with a simple little toolbox or gas can and next thing ya know it's endless hours of 8"x12" sheets of styrene, Tenex by bulk and miniaturizing everything you can think of


Toolbox one day...... Complete scaler truck body from scratch the next.


Great job on the toolbox and welcome to the sickness of scratch building

Awesome stuff. I have yet to touch the stuff. But I can't wait to get all the little scale accessories made.

Sweet, where'd you get the little cans inside? Or are they scratch-built too?

Little cans were from a 'hobby' store named Hobby Lobby, more of a craft store in reality. I think they're for doll houses, they have a few other similarly scaled items: fishing pole, tools, bucket, etc.
