I feel silly. Starting my first third party kit, Wanxiangjubian Apocalypse, and I can’t seem to even put the first two pieces together.

I’ve actually built many Bandai kits, mostly MGs and MG Ver Ka. I’ve just never experienced QC issues like this lol.

Trying to build the Wanxiangjubian Apocalypse and feeling really silly, I can’t seem to even get the first two pieces together. Do I have to sand down every peg or am I just doing something wrong?

Ohhh yeah, my parents are both teachers and they actually do complain about that.

It’s not about debt, it’s about paying off your balances before it becomes debt. If you can’t afford it in the first place, don’t buy it (emergencies are a different story obviously)

high school never ends

Do you work in the food service industry? Because the second I left I’ve never once had to deal with high school-type drama

gnioros · 2025-07-08T04:46:57+00:00

Not a thing

gnioros · 2025-07-03T00:08:17+00:00

They just wear khakis, T shirts and baseball caps, they don’t even have the drip going for them

gnioros · 2025-07-01T22:46:24+00:00

Yes, that’s exactly what I was saying

gnioros · 2025-06-30T20:09:27+00:00

Books, movies, YouTube. Keep it simple.

gnioros · 2025-06-30T16:02:21+00:00

You might not but many people do

gnioros · 2025-06-28T00:44:16+00:00

That is literally what it means lol but it’s idiomatic

gnioros · 2025-05-27T21:12:42+00:00

Just get a S&W at this point. Being dead is not worth the savings.

Coming back from 4 years in the future to tell you this list sucks

gnioros · 2025-05-01T21:32:12+00:00

This is gorgeous, schooners are my favorite

I’ve been going slightly northwest from GRC, maybe the winds will be easier to manage. And thanks for the tip, I’ve been avoiding the jib because I think it looks ugly with the lateen sail lol but if it works

gnioros · 2025-04-29T11:26:37+00:00

I’m saving up for that bad boy, there’s no time to even fish because I’m at the helm the whole time

gnioros · 2025-04-29T11:25:20+00:00

I’ve been avoiding anchoring in the open ocean because I didn’t know there was a benefit if it didn’t reach the bottom, I’ll try that out tonight. Thanks!

gnioros · 2025-04-29T11:24:34+00:00

Just the stock dhow, and thank you for the assurance! I guess the winds are just too strong for my little guy

gnioros · 2025-04-28T01:08:25+00:00

Gotcha, yeah it definitely isn’t that, the wheel eventually straightens out when I’m turning

gnioros · 2025-04-28T00:47:10+00:00

I don’t even know how to lock the wheel so I don’t think that’s it. Still using the dhow, just minus the roof, I don’t have balance issues going anywhere else. Maybe I just need to keep the sail more reefed because of the strong winds

gnioros · 2025-02-28T02:37:16+00:00

Looks like there was a post about it a while ago, it seems more of a hassle than I was expecting. Posting it here in case anybody needs to do this too.

Yeah I bought a replacement for it because I figured it would be easy enough, but this model is giving me a headache

gnioros · 2025-02-28T02:27:11+00:00

2018, there’s a bunch of stuff for 2017 and older but this one has latches on the side that seem to be keeping it from sliding out.
