Who amongst you thought after-market companies just made a lot of Rubbish? Well you may be wrong – ‘cos Add On Parts are making resin parts that clean up the rubbish – in 35th scale no less..
Add On Parts
Set contains three metal garbage bins
11 parts of grey resin

Right now I am making
a large scale diorama of a “Panzerwerk” garage with several tanks, parts,
tools, men and all the rubbish they accumulate in a workplace – well everyone
has one of these places in their home and work – and this is called a bin.
Well I realised I didn’t have a bin – at all for my diorama –
then I saw these from Add On Parts – they make several things to littler around
your diorama ( pardon the pun) and these
metal rubbish bins looked right up my (dirty) alley.

The bins came in a small plastic container in eleven parts
of grey resin. The resin is bubble free and not covered with release agent and
not too smelly ( I don’t like really smelly resin) – any way the three bins
themselves have tree lids to match and handles – cast in resin to pick them up
with.
The lids will need a bit of work to separate them from their
casting block – and be careful of how you do it as there could be a split or
broken part if you go gung-ho about it

The same goes for the handles – they are tiny and need a lot
of careful snipping to remove from their casting blocks. If you don’t go like a
bull at a gate you will do alright. If one does break – like happened to me –
then just use some wire to make the handle. This in hindsight would be a better
option I think.

And that sums it up really – a nice bit of detail and some
lovely bins to dump all of your small scale stuff in! A very nice addition to
my garage when it finally gets past the drawing board!
