i pretty understand the reasons for patient's mental isolation treatment when being in this kind of facilities.

"His sister visited him in a hospital and they allow her only 1 hour"......

"but he is not allowed to make a phone calls from hospital "

one day, i was in the same situation....but i was in jail....

I really don`t know how to comment that, so I`ll remain silent... like I would do in jail. ???

julienvoirin and i ordered 2 panels and 2 pcb ....reveived 1 panel and 2 pcb

Exactly, and julien knows why this happend. I asked him to notify me when he send the money to prof and he obviously forgot to do it. Julien at first didn`t wanted the panel and then he changed his mind, so I didn`t made him the panel. Now I know he payed but now I need to send him another package. I`m not sure whay you have with it.

Sasha, the panels had to be in metal ....they are plastic with sort of decal... :-\...stay cool

Wrong. You obviously didn`t follow much x0xb0x on MB forum and I`m really not surprised you was expect metal panels.

reading the passage again,

She told me he is recovering slowly and he remembers he took packages from me but he don`t know where they are now.

The packages are probably at his home, but he is not allowed to make a phone calls from hospital and I don`t have any contacts of his wife.

With no certain date set, I view your last message as "Delayed until further notice" or "delayed until you manage to make and sell your x0x and after that collect interest, money, pcbs production  - again". Can take very much time.

Very much time. Not good.

Can you please reach his wife (via his sister).

I'm afraid the guy was able to throw the stuff down the drain in the moment of unstable mind he had.

Please post what she has to say about (particularly, where is our envelopes and why they are still there).

On same occasion, please Instruct her to send them to us asap.

Alternatively, please post me in PM his sister/his wife number so i could call her.

I don't feel anything wrong disturbing a-n-y-b-o-d-y when my stuff disappear, so i definitely would investigate the issue further with you/his sister/his wife/family cat or else.

How would you accept note that your stuff shipping status is on hold/delayed/lost unknown because some unknown mailman gone nuts down the road? At least, you would ask to know for sure that you still have something to wait for. Right?

Hope you understand my position.

Please help me to get my stuff i paid for.

Please reply with critical information i asked for. I want solid facts.

---------------------------

i come back (as in when you press 'modify' button on top right corner) and clarify again: there's nothing about you Sasha, i appreciate your work, being helpful as you can and all.

It's personal about my stuff which is (hopefully) lying somewhere unattended or even non existing anymore (hopefully not).

read it as 'show must go on', or as "i must receive my stuff i paid for".

Good day to you, don't take it to your heart man.

Ok, so if your friend has a wife she has access to the packages. This should be easily sorted out then. Hopefully you will contact the sister, who can contact the wife and drop these packages in the mail. I personally paid for 2 sets of PCBs what seems like a year ago and 2 sets of panels. I will also say that i got a few nasty emails from you when i didnt respond the next day to an email you wrote me wanting money for panels. And its been many many months that you've had money from people without anything in return. I think everyone has been pretty nice so far about this. I think if the shoe were on the other foot you'd be writing every day a where's my stuff email. Luckily for you, i'm not that kind of person. But you took on this project, made a bad decision about giving other peoples property to someone else, so take on the responsibility on getting people the stuff they paid for...a long time ago.

hello again.

After posting and editing that numerous times, i re-read the whole thread and private messages couple of times too.

I glare at the screen for days now, don't know what to do either... fucked situation.

After seeing chain reaction my post evoke, more and more i realise i shoudn't posted that. I kinda was loosing hope back then. Not good.

Damn me, hot head!  ;D

Back on track reconditioned.

I just got a phone call from the German guy. He got out of the hospital and apologizes for not sending the packages. I didn`t wanted to ask him anything except for his health as he seams he already feel a guilty and I didn`t wanted to make it even harder for him. I`m glad he is OK. He said he`ll sort the things out. I`ll be in contact to him again when he got internet back.

I hope you will all feel happy and satisfied very soon. Thank you all for your patience.

I should meet the German guy at Skype the other day, but as he couldn`t install it in the internet caffe, he send me an email... the packages are left in his driver`s car (his friend) and not at his home as his sister told me. The driver is currently in Serbia and will return this week. He promised me he`ll went to Nürnberg when driver returns, get the packages and send it to you.

You are welcome. I hope the waiting worth it.

Got mine this morning - definitely worth it, panels absolutely beautiful. Enough to make me start talking to a local custom painter about spraying the Pactec Silver to match.

Thanks for all the hard work, you put into this, Sasha.

Let's hope for a more stress free, very acid, New Year!

spraying the Pactec Silver to match.
i suggest you the Tamiya paint for Lexan (PS Serie). You need 250 mL to make a super good job

Watch out

painting ABS is a real pain with classic paint, but the one for Lexan is very fitting. Don't forget to degrease ("unfat") the Pactec before spraying (with 90° alcohol)

Thanks Julien - I'd never have thought of that type of paint, but of course it is perfectly designed for the job.

"Unfat" had me puzzled for a moment, then the literal translation got to me. Ah!  "De-Grease". one of the problems of dictionaries.

(You should have seen some of my early attempts to buy electronic parts in Paris... At one place the guy behind the counter used to give me a pad and a pen when I walked in, then I could draw diagrams. First breakthrough was the magic words "Une Bidule comme ça")

I've been advised to lightly wet sand the ABS case, (I want to get rid of the textured finish anyway), and to use a plasic primer - I notice Tamiya do one. From my model making days, I remember that matt white primer was best under silver paint. Wet sanding avoids heat, which can release chemicals from the ABS that mess up the paint, apparently.

My spraying will never be as good as the finish you or Sasha got, so I think I'll ask a car sprayer near here to do the actual painting.

Boxes look good!

that's effectivly what you are supposed to do according to friends specialised in plastic (they ve got a factory). They also told me "ABS is the shit !  (to paint)
so I think I'll ask a car sprayer near here to do the actual painting.
i wanted to do the same, but find a guy who's OK to do that for a few bucks ... no way. Moreover, the ABS used in the "parechoc" (shield in english if i well remember, it is not a word you use everyday) is not the same as in the Pactec. "Shield paint will not grab on the pactec" told the guy in the garage

So Tamiya is the best deal for me. it costs 15 € of paint.

My spraying will never be as good as the finish you or Sasha got
if you spray at 20-25 cm it is ok, it will be perfect. It was the 1st time was doing it. Be sure to be as constant as posbile in the movement and don't hesitate to spray out of the case on the card board.

PS : spray outdoor : the solvent is deadly ! really, no way to breath next to.

I'm no expert on plastic painting I guess, but I am an ex model aircraft builder and still a graff writer, and I know that model points cost a freakin' fortune, and for about the same price of a tiny tub of tamiya paint, you can get a can of krylon (ugh) or belton (yay) plastic paint designed for this kind of thing....

Unfat? Would some fine wet and dry paper have the same effect? Does anybody know where can I get some 90% alcohol from in the UK (The last bottle I got sent over from Poland got polished off at Glastonbury  :-[ ).

***Edit*** Doh, should have read the other posts, questions answered!
