New/old?
Stock/modified?

I have some Maisto 1/24 that I actually bought through Wal-Mart.

Does anyone know where I can pick up a good pomade or hair wax or clay or whatever thats strong enough for typical asian hair (very straight and thick). By strong I mean an all day hold / I dont have to fix it constantly.

Any recommendations? I've got kind of a side-part/pomp going on so I'm looking for something that will hold and preferably not too shiny looking

bartone 05-16-2013 02:06 AM

I use http://www.amazon.com/Joico-Erratic-Molding-Unisex-Ounce/dp/B0012X5RX4 Seems to work well for me until my hair gets long and needs a cut, but I dont do anything really drastic in terms of styling... its about $12 at most hairsalons. I got mine at the one in metro by the food court

Verdasco 05-16-2013 02:45 PM

i use osmo clay wax for styling the hair to the side, if you want it spikey, I suggest gatsby red cube box (which can be bought in T&T)

OK, I must be turning Italian. I love Italian food. I'm looking for a place to buy great Capicolo. Medium hot, dry preferred.

I've tried ones from Bosa Foods, Freybe's and now Continental Sausage Company. There are a lot of Italian deli's. Which one should I go to?

godwin 05-16-2013 10:50 PM

Santa Barbara on Commercial... Casa Del Pane in Newport Village.. Oyama on Granville Island. (ranked by increasing prices).

Though I don't believe they have dried Capicolo, Banana Grove has an assortment of awesome deli meats and the best part....

THEY HAVE AMAZING PRICES AND DEALS.

They definitely have regular Capicolo in different trim and spice.

oem anything is expensive

you could shop around at parts stores though, like lordco etc, but it'll still be pricey

Any place locally that deals with specialty electrical connectors/components (automotive)? I have a couple of terminals that I need to find replacements for, but they aren't exactly something you could find at home depot...

One is a terminal with a dome shaped contact on the top

The other is a regular looking terminal to fit inside a factory connector.

^ Any thing like that I've always gone to Lee's Electronics on Main St.

Where can I find any of the following to remove these awful triangle head screws

http://images.gasgoo.com/MiMgIzI3ODM...ping-screw.jpg

Either a:
- Triangle head screwdriver
- Narrow enough flathead screwdriver
- 1.5mm hex allen key

Whichever of these need to be at least 10cm long my allen key is just short of reaching the damn things. No bits.

Already checked the usual nearby suspects of Home Depot, Rona and CT tonight nothing that could work.

murd0c 05-17-2013 10:05 PM

if they can't get it no place can

Pacific Fasteners - Home

KMS Tools or Summit Tools - t-handle hex. If those two places don't stock it, try Acklands Grainger. They can order the right one for you.

The other alternative is to use the triangle bit from a security bit set and use an extension.

If I had to take a lot of those screws out, I'd take a fucked up screwdriver and grind it to fit the screwheads.

Also try Princess Auto, they have various sets of security bits that may include the right one.

Inline fuse holder, I presume? Anytime I've had the ends kack in those things, I just cut the wire, strip a bit, mash it out, and put a blob of solder on it.

Where can I buy insulated 12 gauge wire by the foot? I only need about 3 feet

jtrinh 05-18-2013 01:22 AM

^^again, Lee's electronics. If you ask nicely they'll cut however much you need. Otherwise its just some spare change for a small bundle in a baggie.

godwin 05-18-2013 01:36 AM

RP Electronics on Grandview.

If you are really specific for the dome shape connector, the best way is to measure your wire size in AWG and connector size in " and look up the park on Newark. Especially if the local places like RP/Main etc don't stock them.. they would have to go to their distributor, Pico which in turns goes and get it from Newark anyways.
