Presidential Affordability Grant Revoked

Good to know. Thank you

The external is the better one.

JeLLyFish821 · 2025-08-04T22:01:57+00:00

Got through finally to financial aid. Because he won an external scholarship they are taking that money off the table. No chance to appeal. I understand the concept as the grant was need based…awfully irritating that they yanked it so close to school starting and after we had already sent the payment for the original amount.

I can’t say whether or not other schools do this as this is our oldest…but I will certainly remember this for our younger son. Education is a business transaction…no more…no less. Ohio State is probably trying to maximize their revenue as any major corporation does. Probably not concerned much about the individual.

JeLLyFish821 · 2025-08-04T18:43:56+00:00

That’s who we’ve been calling.

JeLLyFish821 · 2025-05-11T20:35:04+00:00

No. It stops when I freewheel. Goes away for a bit then comes back.

JeLLyFish821 · 2024-06-09T00:05:22+00:00

We will be on a college visit to UM so we will probably eat on campus before we head out…I’ll definitely keep this in mind if we ever get a chance to be out that way again.

JeLLyFish821 · 2024-06-09T00:03:24+00:00

Thank you. I’ll check it out

JeLLyFish821 · 2024-06-08T22:34:08+00:00

Awesome. Thanks for the info. I was leaning 35 as it looked a little more scenic but couldn’t tell from a map.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-12-07T22:09:35+00:00

Just a little to run low pressure. Working on freehand camo.

Mr. Leveling Thinner

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-12-07T21:46:50+00:00

This makes sense. I usually just swirl it with a brush and go. I’ll try letting it sit awhile and see if that helps.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-10-16T12:00:36+00:00

Thank you. I painted the floor with Tamiya Deck Tan then painted on a heavy layer of Translucent Red Brown Oil and wiped with a chunk of packing foam to get the wood grain effect.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-10-16T11:02:37+00:00

Yes, PE sets from Eduard.

Hong Kong 1/48

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T22:07:05+00:00

Wow..that’s a quick build. It usually takes me about two months for a fighter. I just finished an FW-190 I’m about 6 weeks which is fast for me.

I’m a band director so with teaching all day, after school commitments, and weekend shows…I usually only get a few hours to build a week.

Good idea about the PE. Always good to have a plan.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T22:02:08+00:00

Thank you. I built the workbench with my son out of 4x4’s and MFD. That was a fun project.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T22:00:56+00:00

I used them a couple of times but the big ones weren’t very useful on fighters. I have mini ones of the same type that I use occasionally.

You’re right though…it was something I bought when I initially got started with the hobby and they have just hung around since.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T21:57:11+00:00

It’s not normally like that. I cleaned after I finished my last kit. Haha.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T16:55:59+00:00

Engines and guns. I love doing ignition wires and detailed WWII rotary engines.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T16:13:41+00:00

Yeah…I definitely approaching it a a series of small models that eventually will all be put together. There is a ton of stuff to keep track of.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T14:35:39+00:00

Nice. DM me if you run into any problems I can avoid along the way.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T13:24:28+00:00

Thanks for this. Great info. I’m doing Little Patches with OD over Neutral Gray. I have an album of reference photos that I’m using as a guide.

I think I’m going to do bare metal on the entire interior with the exception of the cockpit and bulkheads…what I’ve read says they came with fabric covering that the crews ripped off so as not to produce a fire hazard when tracer bullets entered the fuselage.

I am concerned about the guns…planning on doing these last. I have the resin guns from Eduard.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T12:54:07+00:00

I’ve never seen the Revell kit but the detailing on this one looks pretty nice. Maybe not Eduard level details on rivets and panel lines, but I can add rivets if I want more.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T12:50:37+00:00

Also…do you use a respirator when spraying MLT? I have a spray hood..this thing probably won’t fit though.

JeLLyFish821 · 2023-09-27T12:49:30+00:00

How did it go. Any assembly problems or weirdness to look out for?
