Default Crisco

The OV-10 Bronco ARF can be seen at:
www.hobbyhangar.com At the bottom of the page it says "Click here" to see ScaleTech Prestige series ARFS
I paid $269 for it.

Crisco shortning is one of my best kept modeling secrets. I primarily use it to lube up torque rods before gluing them into foam core wings on my racing planes. In my opinion it works much better than candle wax, or those brass or plastic sheeths. Just lube up the rods, and glue em in (works for both CA and Epoxy). Once the glue is dry, just crack them loose.

It also makes a good lubricant on pushrods. Just don't get it on anything you ever plane on glueing, because once its on something glue does not want to stick to it.

Besides, I can't remember the last time that the Crisco was needed in the kitchen. I swiped it about 3 years ago and the wife hasn't missed it yet. Plus the small can I have has got to be a life time supply.
