Popular Post hicrop10 Posted May 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 19, 2020 I said to my wife I had nothing to do,she handed me a bottle of windex and a roll of paper towels and said follow me.Down the basement we go she turns and says start dusting.I started with the 2 shelves with the small ones,next will be the case with the Mack trucks,then the case with the Caterpillars,then the cranes they will be a bitch,last will be the rest of the Cats.I think I will keep my big mouth shut next time and just go out in my shop. 9 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/62597-nothing-to-do/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyGunner Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Very nice collection. I just inherited a Coca Cola collection (cars, trucks, equipment, aircraft etc) and the display case they go in. Not nearly as extensive as yours but I’m very excited to get it out into my home or shop. Thanks for sharing.

GA_Dave Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Nice collection! I have a sizeable collection of die-cast fire apparatus. When I have to clean them, I use a 1" wide, soft, fluffy artist's brush and a can of compressed air. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/62597-nothing-to-do/#findComment-451604 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZB755V8 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Wow, that is a collection that took years to accumulate and very impressive. I have few diecast and know the cost. Wife know how much you got into it? Hope not or you may have to buy her some stuff. Nice collection!

Can't imagine the time to get those properly dimensioned even before you start to build.
