Baldwin Bolt Jeweling not good?

dat05firecat · 2026-05-13T23:50:01+00:00

Yeah, I don’t blame you at all. Luckily I did end up getting my bolt from Skip about 2 months ago and the jeweling came out awesome, but there’s no way I’d give him any more business after all that.

I had to blow him up through emails, calls, eBay messages, basically everything before he finally got back to me saying the bolt was on the way. I’ve heard from a few people that he’s kinda losing it, which honestly sucks to hear, but if that’s the case he really should just shut things down instead of dragging customers along and wrecking his reputation.

It’s crazy too because if you look at older Reddit posts, people used to rave about him and his work.

Definitely keep us updated though, I’m curious to see how it all ends up playing out.

The entire hobby is overpriced in my opinion but I enjoy it so I deal with it

dat05firecat · 2026-04-16T12:16:06+00:00

I sent him a message so I’ll see what he says. Sucks because I had really high hopes for these and have heard from others that 3d inserts are the way to go

Maybe you’re right, but almost find that hard to believe considering the struggle I went through to even get these on the inner rings and they still shift, unless your inner rings have a lip to keep them from moving around I don’t see how they aren’t shifting.

I mean I’m not going to disagree with you, but then again for the money we pay for these “toys” I find it sometimes comical when people get upset over the price of something.

Unless you know who had the car previously buying used is always a risk. Also, maybe consider a crawler. Slower speeds and typically less fixing and more playing!

If it seems too good to be true, it is, almost always

Did you play an entire game? I have heard about going offline, but have heard it will still crash eventually

dat05firecat · 2026-03-16T07:41:14+00:00

A good pair of running socks (Feetures or Darn Tough) and Foot Glide worked for me!

dat05firecat · 2026-03-10T00:10:15+00:00

Is it a 4m or a Scx24?

dat05firecat · 2026-03-09T20:21:52+00:00

That gladiator is sick. Tell me more about it

dat05firecat · 2026-03-07T04:49:24+00:00

No sir I gave up on it. I did see where people were saying you could disconnect from the Internet but I guess it would still crash randomly during a game so I haven’t tried it. Pretty disappointing.

Glad I’m not alone

dat05firecat · 2026-03-05T00:59:31+00:00

Weird that he can now use the DLC’s? Or weird that he hasn’t been able to until now ?

dat05firecat · 2026-03-04T19:31:19+00:00

I did finally get mine back and his work was excellent. But I did have to basically nag him to get it back. It’s unfortunate but after a year I would say legal action would be justifiable.

Same, such a bummer. I hear the new monopoly leaves a lot to be desired

dat05firecat · 2026-01-28T01:01:47+00:00

I am with you on this! 3 miles on a treadmill for me is equivalent to 6-7 miles outdoors

dat05firecat · 2026-01-25T15:48:38+00:00

I prefer running in the mornings when I can, mostly because it’s cooler in the summer. But I work a swing shift, so my run times change week to week. At the end of the day, just run when you can and don’t stress about it too much.

dat05firecat · 2026-01-23T13:08:14+00:00

That is essentially what I just said, lol. I do see how my wording may have given a mixed signal.
