Bill_S Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 The worst thing about the SAC gear is them using the SAC emblem on their packaging. What a dishonor to SAC! How they remain in business has got me stumped. Maybe their business plan is to get lots of people to buy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamfists nz Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Yes but into a shiny blob which gives off that smell if you've ever done a bit of electrical repair..I bet they use solder as the main ingredient when they're casting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RLWP Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Poor and unusable. Peter To be fair, the material isn't poor, it is unsuitable. It's ideal for making wargaming figures, not for load bearing parts Richard Out2gtcha, LSP_Matt and coogrfan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out2gtcha Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 A poor choice for landing gear where strength is needed for large scale models Peter I was going to say...................I thought you meant poor, as in poor choice of metal where strength is needed VS just poor quality metal in general. More "poor" metal as in a poor choice, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
