• Hey guys got a question about the new Revell Bronco Half cab and dune buggy combo.....
  • No it is to small! *NM*
• January 9th is National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. *PICS*
  • Thanks for posting. A long time friend of mine (RIP) retired from the Columbus, Oho Police Department. *NM*
    • Oops! Should be Ohio above. *NM*
  • Is Yellowstone your local county? Is the tv series set there? My sister and brother-in-law are fans, but I do not have that in my tv package or know how to stream it. *NM*
    • Sorry about asking a question based on the signage on the models. Two of my cousins were law officers. One was a County Detective and the other a Texas DPS officer and later a County Deputy Sheriff. The detective has passed away and the deputy has now retired. Both were
  • C'mon Terry. You know that if it hasn't anything to do with the pandemic, be it politics, or social media, it won't be published, right? *NM*
• This was our house on January 7. Now it's 45 deg. and raining. Go figger!
  • well at least it will save wear and tear on the snow blower *NM*
  • Wow, what a beautiful house and garage and setting, nice! *NM*
    • I agree. Halllmark Christmas card quality picture! *NM*
  • It's going to be really cold again Tuesday though. :-( *NM*
  • Some five hours north of Charlie, I have about the same amount of snow and it is cold out there at -5F with the wind. *NM*
• I built this 1941 Chevrolet panel for our truck theme last April . . . *PIC*
  • A fine piece of work, Gary!! Like it!! *NM*
  • That s great looking. *NM*
  • NICE! *NM*
  • I like that! Very cool *NM*
  • Very realistic build and paint combo for the era of black fenders. Nice! *NM*
  • I love the color combo! *NM*
• As I suspected when I was looking at the kit, the new AMT 1929 Ford Woodie is the old MPC 1929 Ford Station Wagon down to the Sting-Ray bicycle... *NM*
  • I wish they'd put Hot Kurl back in the kit. *NM*
    • "Hot Kurl"??? What's that? *NM*
      • The cool little surfer dude that came in the original "The Wild Ones" issue of the Model A Woody / Roadster Pickup kit *NM* *PIC*
        • You can find some history of "Hot Curl" at link inside.... *NM* *LINK*
          • See. I told you guys awhile back, about LaJolla havin' the best sufrin. Ahhhh, sweet memories, 1956/'57. Eeeeeeha! *NM*
            • DUH! That be surfin' NOT sufrin'! More coffee, please. *NM*
  • Thanks,that is good to know. *NM*
  • Isn't the Woodie version the kit that "killed" the Tudor??? *NM*
• M-715 Project Installment #2
  • I remember that brush truck. That was amazing. *NM*
    • This is it. All of the bar work and sheet metal work were done by the fire fighters.
• My first build this year. The Revell 68 Chevelle is a great kit. Think I'll do a couple more. Pics inside.
  • I like the stance! *NM*
  • Ditto!!! *NM*
    • Thanks! N50-15s help. *NM*
      • Just the way we used to do it!!! *NM*
        • Yup! I'm going to do another with the Revell Germany kit. It has the SS hood and deck stripes. *NM*
  • Ooh, I like your style! Very nice. *NM*
  • Did you use the shackles and air shocks from the old pro Nova? And it needs an STP sticker on it. *NM*
    • No leaf springs. Fireball tires, Coil overs are Revell 32 Ford. *NM*
  • What dark blue paint is that? *NM*
    • One coat laquer. Either Star Spangled Blue or Deja Blue. I don't remember, sorry. *NM*
  • Love this style of build. You nailed it! *NM*
    • Thanks! I think the Revell 69 Chevelle will get this treatment. Front will be a bit higher, The other One Coat Laquer with white hood and deck stripes. *NM*
• I posted asking about an aftermarket model company BNL resins last night and it appears it was removed. May i ask why? *NM*
  • Never mind i found it. Jeesh im getting old. *NM*
    • LOL... *NM*
  • It's still there. You can adjust how many days od the board you can see and mine is set at four days. *NM*
  • Re: don't you wish we could just delete, or edit post or comments on here. This old message board has become part of a lot of our lives over the last 20 years. I think it went on line the same time as Windows 3.1... *NM*
• Using Google Image Search I've looked at hundreds of '29 Ford hiboys and I don't think I've seen even one with the rear wheel arches modified like the Revell kit... WHY did Revell chose to impose that modification on us? Tim?? *NM*
  • To have it sit lower and to better fit bigger/fatter tires on it without having them stick way out, is my guess. You're right though, very few 1:1 model A rods are modified that way. *NM*
    • On all the Hiboys I've seen, the wheel well is irrelevant because the tires always clear the body, channeled '29s hide it completely. I still don't buy Revell's reasoning for foisting this mod on us. Mind you, the AMT body will interchange but that's not the point is it? *NM* *LINK*
  • What's the big deal? *NM*
    • Terry,its no really big deal but for those of us who are rivet counters(lol) its just a modification that seems an unecessary change that is hard to restore whereas if someone wanted that look it would be easy to achieve from the stock wheelarch,great kit tho',thanks Revell *NM*
  • That's the #1 thing I would have changed had they asked me. It may have been inspired by several 1/1 scale hot rods from the previous decade that featured this change, as well as a perception that the tires needed to tie into the wheel well opening, which was not always...
• Crime Dog requested a 'What's in the Box' review of the Charger III kit I bought from my brother. *LINK*
• A little Tipsy this morning.
  • The stake bed's way cool, RS. *NM*
  • Love Tipsy! *NM*
  • Looking good RS!! *NM*
  • I have heard cars called buggies before, but the bed cover baby buggy graphic? LOL! *NM*
• Somebody did a weird little diorama with a wood chipper on this happy divorce cake... *NM* *PIC*
  • Years ago(30 or so?), a guy(won't mention his name), murdered his wife, froze her body in a freezer he had in the garage, bought a wood chipper, and on a cold and snowy night, off a country road, eliminated(in shreds), said wife. Interesting, how he was caught. *NM*
    • So how was he caught? (Asking for a friend) LOL. *NM*
      • As he was tossin' parts of his (late) wife in the chipper, some state highway workers drove by, and wondered why is somebody using a wood chipper, in the middle of the night(roughly 10:00p.m.). So, the next day, the police found parts of the wood chipper, and a
        • I watched that same episode as well.it's scary what people can be capable of. *NM*
          • I retired from 25 years in the ILL.Dept. of Corrections. You, have NO idea what some people are capable of. Ever heard of Richard Speck? Yup, I "worked" (with3 ladies"of color" and Soul music),Central Control, Stateville Prison, back in '83. Also, "C" house, 3 gallery, State
    • Golly...that's right out of "Fargo." *NM*
  • Yuck! *NM*
  • LOL Plenty of DNA evidence there. *NM*
• Hey Spotlight folks! Any release date info for the upcoming Monte Carlo Superstocker reissue? *PIC*
  • There is no official release date (shipping issues and all), but we will get them as fast as possible so keep an eye out! *NM*
    • Thank you! I will be watching. :) *NM*
  • Is this a straight re do of the old kit? *NM*
• 1971 Drag Racing video. *NM* *LINK*
  • Thanks I watched several along the side of yours. *NM*
  • Nice stuff in there, but the highlight may be what appears to be Roland Leong's personal street-going Charger that first appears at 5:39. What color is that? It is beautiful! *NM*
    • Chris, if it's a stock '70 color, it has to be Q3 Light Turquoise. It's the only color on my DuPont chart that's even close. *NM*
  • Flat out way cool to spend 13 minutes....thx David! TB *NM*
  • That was great! Amazing... you can even tell what makes/models the cars are! *NM*
  • Ahh thanks David. Now I have to get back to work on my long waiting Hawaiian build again. Wasn't there an article in one of the model car magazines about the "proper" detailing of that kit? Anybody remember? *NM*
• Speaking of cloned T coupes... *PICS*
  • The '49 rims look good on it *NM*
  • Sharp. Well done. *NM*
  • Nice build! *NM*
• Took a little break from the winter blues, to check out the first indoor car show of the year around this neck of the woods.... Images from the 10th annual (and final) Retro Rewind, in Dubuque, Iowa.... *PICS* *LINK*
  • Marty.....that 56 Chev Sport Sedan in the gold metalflake & white gets my vote, basically a stock 4dr body with beautiful custom paint.......exquisite. *NM*
    • Gets my vote too....here's another one I like! *NM* *PIC*
      • The 56 Chev 4dr H/top was an uncommon import into Oz as we only got the 4dr sedans assembled by Oz GM, those h/tops were known for rust in that V shaped rear pillar, I repaired a couple yrs ago that still give me nightmares......lol. *NM*
    • That was easily the nicest car there... Funny though... I had made two or three passes around the car before realizing it was a four door.. *NM*
  • Some nice ideas for Revell's A coupe kit. Like that red one. *NM*
  • I can smell the hot buttered popcorn in the background..Those were the original type shows I liked too.. *NM*
  • An indoor car show event is a great idea for January. Sorry to hear it is being phased out. The variety was fun to see. Thanks for sharing. *NM*
  • I think the only indoor antique/custom car show here in the Boston area is the World of Wheels show that had been cancelled a couple of yeas ago, and it appears organizers are looking for a location to host future events. *NM*
    • Hard to believe that there would be no indoor show in a metropolitan area of that size.... Of course my description of "this neck of the woods" was a 95 mile drive each way yesterday..
      • Car shows shut down in the late Fall and start up again in the late spring. *NM*
        • Same here with outdoor shows.... However between January and April there is about a half dozen indoor shows within a 100 mile radius of my home. *NM*
  • Cool pics, trying to figure out whats the roof mod on that Chevy Van, a pop up or??? *NM*
• I was in my local Hobbytown last night after work and I was browsing the model aisle and decided to bring this home. *PIC*
  • That's not a bad kit (it even has opening doors) but the pieces you'd want to do an updated version would be available at a number of sites that have resin pieces. I have a blown 454 with 2 carbs going into mine and I have some great piecrust slicks and resin Cragars.
  • I built the two door. Don't remember any big issues but I did scratch build a lot on mine. I got a set of resin Cragars off the bay. *NM* *PIC*
  • Re: come on let's not mention competitors on here, It was Tom's golden rule that we didn't violate, as he would say they don't pay to give us this board, just throwing it out there, or maybe with new owners it is allowed.. *NM*
    • Retired Soldier is right, we'll let this one slide at this time because we don't stock it. Just be aware, this board does cost money to run and your purchases from us help keep it afloat. Thank you for your consideration. *NM*
      • Either way its just a courteous & respectful thing that we all should adhere to whether Spotlight carries the item or not.......my Oz 2cents worth. *NM*
      • I'm sorry, that slipped my mind! Thanks for the advance forgiveness! *NM*
    • IIRC, I think this is also why we aren't supposed to link to posts at the "other" model forum(s), as competitors would likely be discussed there as well. *NM*
  • I saw this post a few hours ago and wondered the same thing--couldn't find board rules. I think Kremer's a decent guy--just think he forgot. *NM*
    • That said, this very thing happened a few days ago with another board member and nothing was said/done. *NM*
      • Board users just got to PAY ATTENTION to usual courtesy rules.. *NM*
    • Thanks Ken! I think Kremer's a pretty decent guy too! *NM*
  • Thank you for the info on the kit. I just popped off the plastic and took a look inside...
  • I mentioned another website the other day but it was for paint so thought that was ok....I hope. *NM*
• ANOTHER PART... of my busy last couple of weeks. Well since X-mas this has been bugging me. Built the 57 F/C, Marty gave me 55, So I had no choice but to do a 56. PIX and thanks for looking
  • Any idea on livery and graphics? Be neat to see you do another FC based on an old Jr Stock scheme like you did with the '57 *NM*
    • Re: Any idea on livery and graphics? Be neat to see you do another FC based on an old Jr Stock scheme like you did with the '57 *NM*
      • Sorry..... It will be like a 56 Jr Stocker named "Bad Hombre" White car with blue stripe and blue front end just off the headlights. *NM*
        • Here is the only picture I have of the car. PIC and thanks for looking
  • I like where your going with these. Its to bad you couldn't resin those bodies when done especially the 55. *NM*
  • Looking forward to the '56! *NM*
• Was / is there a ‘66 mercury comet cyclone kit ? *NM*
  • Yes. AMT had a 66 annual, hard to find now, expensive. There is a 67 Cyclone *NM*
    • What year is the AMT AWB Cyclone ? *NM*
      • The AMT Dyno Don Eliminator 11 is a 67 Cyclone, or thats what its called. *NM*
  • I've always liked the '66 a little better than the '67. Would be nice if Round2 could base one off their '67 but won't hold my breath... ;-) *NM*
• DECIDED ON A DIFFERENT DIRECTION..... I started with the resin body GTO, got where I wanted it but last minute I said I'm doing my own in plastic. Still going to be my own take on a car. PIC and thanks for looking
  • Nice work Frank..Sure you weren't a body man in a previous life? *NM*
  • I agree, nice bodywork. *NM*
• Is there a way to cross reference Testors spray colors to Tamiya that might be close?? For instance, I want to find a Tamiya color real close to Testors "Blue Angel Blue". Thanks. *NM*
  • FWIW, I saw a chart that showed Tamiya X-3 Royal Blue as the Blue Angel color. Haven't tried it myself. *NM*
  • Also found this link. It also suggests X-3 for Blue Angel Blue. *NM* *LINK*
    • Thanks, can't seem to get the link to work, but what does the X in front of the number mean?? Is it good for styrene like the TS numbers?? *NM*
      • In Tamiya bottle paint, X is gloss, XF is flat. (Although X-18 is semi flat black, a really useful paint for suspension parts and the like). Perfect for styrene. *NM*
• My memories from the past, the chopped top T.
  • That "Studey" rod is just bizarre! And imaginative. *NM*
  • LOTSA COOL STUFF *NM*
  • Cool models and memories. *NM*
• NEW CONTEST CATEGORY: Skin glued to PE--deduct points for fast-setting, thin CA--add points cleanliness of assembly (e.g. no blood, use of scalpel, thinness of slice, etc.) *NM*
  • That is why I have both kinds of fingernail polish remover on my hobby bench!! *NM*
    • That's a good idea. I usually just sand the glue off of my fingers. *NM*
• First finished of 2022.........not a model car..... *PIC*
  • Nice. Lotta detail on the buildings, truck, and car for 1/43. *NM*
  • Impressive. Model RR layouts are like classical music: they're an amazing skill set that I wished I understood how to do *NM*
• Miscellaneous Mopar Madness *PICS*
  • Instead of a just one more Nova, I wish Moebius had kitted this one. *NM* *PIC*
    • Think it would sell enough to make a profit? *NM*
      • Oh yeah, people have been hollering for C-body Mopars for years, I'm sure a 4 door cop car in plastic or resin would be next. *NM*
        • Anyone who thinks it's a "sure thing" should finance the first production run...money in the bank, right? *NM*
          • Bingo *NM*
            • Yeah, if I suggest a new McDonalds sandwich, I should finance it. Great business logic. *NM*
              • There's a guy in NJ we all know who HAS financed model kits (first reissues, lately new items) and seems to be doing well with it *NM*
                • Correct you are, although I bet if you asked him, a C-Body Mopar would not make his list. Not that I wouldn't love to have one (a '70 Sport Fury GT would be my first choice...) TB *NM*
                  • It took fifteen years of TV exposure to get half of a four-door Chevy tooled. I wouldn't hold my breath on another all-new late Sixties fullsize car kit, be it GM, Ford, or Chrysler *NM*
                    • ...unless somebody creates an ultra popular TV series with one in it. Maybe we should be lobbying the TV production companies for a Fury in their shows... :-D *NM*
                  • Yeah, SF GT for me too, but not holding my breath... ;-) *NM*
                • So you know a guy who knows a guy. I am convinced. (obvious sarcasm) *NM*
              • McD's doesn't have to spend six figures to cut tooling for a sammich, they just make a few and try it in a few locations. Bad comparison *NM*
                • You're obviously forgetting advertising, packaging, supplies etc etc. No Mopars, I get it, thats what you want. Hope Moebius is making good money on their mid 60s Fords.
          • Doesn't hurt to dream... Who'd have thunk a Hudson would be a success? *NM*
            • Animated movie connection. "Cars" was a big hit. *NM*
              • Really? But there were no "Cars" character versions done. Regardless, I don't expect to ever see a new C body kit, or anything else that isn't mainstream or a reissue, so the conversation is essentially dead. *NM*
                • Yes, silence, don't speak, the powers that be have decided one less choice in a declining hobby is a good thing. *NM*
                • Doc Hudson was one of the major characters in the first "Cars". He is an old veteran race car that helps Lightning as crew chief. Kits of the Cars characters would have been a natural for drawing kids into the model building hobby, imo. I was just saying the recent 4 door *LINK*
          • The only "sure thing" is the excuses that get trotted out over and over. *NM*
            • As long as the economics are what they are, the hobby is what it is
              • Obsucation doesn't hide the desire for a C body Mopar police car. Just need to get the obstructionists out of the way. *NM*
                • Obsfucation, I mean *NM*
        • Does nothing for me. :-( *NM*
    • I’d definitely buy that. Not interested in the Nova, but I know I’m in the minority. *NM*
  • The older "Mr. Norm" Kraus got, the more corrupt and greedy he became. Sad. *NM*
    • Really? I'd only good things about him. He died almost a year ago. *NM*
  • the Satellite with the blue lines...never seen those before--only white, red, gold *NM*
    • I'm not 100% sure they came like that. The only OEM blue-line tires I can think of were Goodyear "Blue Streak" tires, which had the white letters too. As seen OEM on some Corvettes around '64-'65. *NM* *PIC*
      • Yea, Bill, same here. FWIW, the Satellite PIC looks more like blue narrow lines NOT the thin line stuff of which I was thinking. *NM*
        • Well, Coker, and Diamondback, will make you any size/type tire with any size/type/color (red, white, blue, gold) stripes you want. I'm sure that is where the Belvedere owner got those blue-walls. *NM*
  • Wasn't there some discussion or an announcement, a few years back, that the Demon was going to make a return to the Round2/MPC lineup? *PIC*
    • That would be outstanding! *NM*
      • Not holding my breath, however... ;-) *NM*
  • Thank you for sharing the PICS! *NM*
• The AMT 1:16 ‘55 Bel Air Hardtop or MPC 1:16 ‘63 Stingray would be my top pucks - preferably with a wheel/tire update. *NM*
  • *picks *NM*
• Amazing work. Thanks for sharing the wip pics. Not all the steps taken will be apparent in the finished build to the general observer so the whys and hows of the transformation from one kit to another model is really appreciated. *NM*
• Anyone know for sure if BNL resins is still in business? I cant seem to connect to their website *NM*
  • We were told that he let go his website (domain costs, etc.) and now is on Facebook under "BestModelCarParts"... *NM* *LINK*
    • I do not beleive BestModelCarParts in BNL resin. There is a BNL Resin FB page that hasn't been update since July *NM*
      • Best Model Car Parts is most definitely *NOT* BNL resin! On eBay, BNL accumulated a large number of negative feedbacks then just seemed to just fade away. *NM*
        • No problems with Best Model Parts. A resin kit I bought was near perfect. *NM*
    • Re: We were told that he let go his website (domain costs, etc.) and now is on Facebook under "BestModelCarParts"...
• The YTesla is as real as it gets. Ask someone at PepsiCO. *NM*
• WOW!!! You seem to be several steps ahead in your planning, like a chess master, only a plastic master :) *NM*
• dog dish caps for 62 chevy or vette
  • You might want to check Revell’s recent ‘62 Impala kit. I’m quite sure I saw dog dishes on the box art. *NM*
    • The Revell is much more accurate to scale than the AMT. Here are some google image search comparison pics.
      • NOTE: Some editions of these '62s may not have the dog dishes. For example, the 2010 AMT kit has them but the 2020 AMT kit may not - its box art shows 3 different wheel/tire options that do not include the dog dishes. I do not know about other AMT or Revell editions. *NM*
      • And while I was at it I picked up a pic of a 1:1 set of them. *NM* *PIC*
  • Pretty sure the original release of the AMT 62 Bel Air has them. *NM*
    • AMT 62 Bel Air dog dish are out of scale. Better to get Revell 62 impala kit. New release has them. *NM*
  • Two different animals here...the '61-62 fullsize had one style, the 'Vettes another *NM*
    • A long time ago, one of the pickup annuals had some very nice bottlecaps *NM*
      • '60-'62 Chevy pickup annuals had separate caps, but those were two more (different) styles...
• Friday Evening Randomness..... ENJOY!!!! *PICS*
  • Thanks Marty. Quite a few of those float my boat. *NM*
  • I'm not sure you can top this session.... I was just looking at that blue 62 Vette Gasser to reposition it in my bookcase. *NM*
  • I'll take that 73 Montego please!!!!! Talk about rare!!!!! *NM*
    • Amen to that, Dave! Never seen one... *NM*
  • Another excellent selection...Thanks :) *NM*
  • Marty, I seldom post about your Friday nite gig, but I just wanted to tell you, I love it, and SO look forward to them! Thanks! *NM*
  • That Lincoln Pro Stock and Ohio George turbo Mustang are great!! *NM*
    • Lincoln? *NM*
      • Red car, white hood. I thought it was a t bird at first. *NM*
        • It's an early Eighties Imperial *NM*
          • Mark has it right.... Though I can't confirm, I'm pretty sure it's the old Mopar City Missile, Super-Gas class '83 Imperial, that used to haunt all the strips around this neck of the woods. *PIC*
  • Great pics Marty, love that 60 Brookwood! Hope nobody got hurt when that Fairlane ran into the back of that Rambler! LOL! Cool stuff sir! *NM*
  • That second image in...'32 Tudor with green flames....sure looks like a Kirby Hughes paint project....really nicely done....TB *NM*
    • I thought the same thing. *NM*
    • Pic taken at NNL North (Minnesota) in 2017.... That is, indeed, one of Kirby's builds *NM*
  • Re: GR-8 choices my friend, thanks for the time you spend getting them together and posting them for our Friday evening enjoyment *NM*
  • Love the T-5 Bronze '69 GTX! *NM*
  • The first "pic", and the BEAUTIFUL tan '46/'47/'48 Ford sedan next to the blue G.T.O. Y'all can have the G.T.O., but don't be messin' with that Ford, o.k.? L.O.L. Thanks, Marty. *NM*
• I'm keeping up with RS as here is my second completion of the year PICS
  • I like this. Interior and body color go together nicely. *NM*
  • Nice recovery. *NM*
  • You made a silk purse there *NM*
  • Good argument that Ford should have done a second-gen Falcon droptop! *NM*
  • You did a great job saving this one! Nice work! *NM*
• My second build of 2022, I love scratch building, not knowing how the model will turn out in the end.I am happy with it.
  • Very nice! *NM*
  • Very nice. I really like the cab. Think I'm going to try that. *NM*
  • Didn't take you very long. Pretty fast builder, I'd say! *NM*
  • You are right to be happy with it. Nice colour too. *NM*
  • nice work *NM*
  • Great stuff sir...... *NM*
  • Turned out great! *NM*
  • Great work on car and truck! Your decal choices finish it off nicely. *NM*
  • That is very cool, nice scratch building and a great way to shorten a van, sweet! *NM*
  • Nice scratch build Ramp Truck and car combo RS!!!! *NM*
  • AWESOME!!!! *NM*
• To the rest of you guys: SEE! There IS oceanfront property in Arizona! *NM*
  • Just a bit west over the hill in my backyard. *PIC*

    • Got the message, all good. Thanks! *NM*
• I got nuthin! *NM*
  • Hmmm... I sent it to the email in your sig
    • Resent - maybe check your spam folder
• Boomer..I just got an email from Auto World that shows the Woodie that the Tudor tooling became is being reissued again, same as previously with the Ford Flathead V8 & Swinn(?) pushbike. *NM*
  • I'm STILL thinkin' about buildin' a model car or two. THINKIN', but not too hard. Thinkin' HURTS! L.O.L. *NM*
• Large scale '59 Cadillac model build video. I'm just going to hang up my #11 blade now! *NM* *LINK*
  • I saw that last week! Ain't that insane?? I bet that cost just as much to build as a real '59 Caddy would cost, which is somewhere near or at six figures! *NM*
    • A 1/1 59 Caddy may be cheaper! *NM*
      • True!! ☺️☺️ *NM*
• Well at least those awful boring wheels are gone. *NM*
• Bill,.......Incredible stuff. When you're finished with this build, you should be locked up because you're clearly insane for putting yourself thru this. I have thrown out all of my models and am proceeding to curling into the fetal position and sucking my thumb. *NM*
  • LOL!!! 😆😆 *NM*
• Excellent work *NM*
• Thank you, Gary. *NM*

• Can anyone shine a light by on how to embed videos in your message? I no longer see the hints section here on the main page. 🤔 *NM*
  • Just embed the link in the "optional link url" space below. *NM*
    • Thanks David! I’ll try that. *NM*
  • YouTube has a SHARE button. You can choose to embed from there. Just copy the URL and paste into the message field of the post. Following their instructions, it should automatically embed in the post. *NM*
    • Thanks Brian…….I had tried that, but when my message posted, all I saw was the URL and not the video itself. I can remember seeing videos showing on posts years ago, but perhaps only the HTML can be posted now? *NM*
