i wonder how much shipping is to canada....only one way to find out  | if you go through the checkout process but not submit any payment information you can do an online shipping quote with your postal code. international orders like canada are given two usps mailing options.
anyone here have any idea what the trend will be like for the exchange rate? are we going to keep falling?

ok so online i saw this guy who made dioramas for his cars, gave it a shot
the brick textured piece started lifting and you can see the outline of the sheet, might do a couple tweeks on it later n add a tree in there or something else. half decent for a first go i thought

anyone using LED strips to display their models for cabinet lighting? Is there a certain brightness not to exceed so paint on the model/acrylic on the case won't degrade over time?
Where did you source the strips that can plug into the wall?

Where did you source the strips that can plug into the wall? | have you tried home depot? otherwise it would have to be those DIY places like the one across the street from home depot burnaby or the one at the corner of 1st and boundary...
