Update 04/29/24: Since the RMC article came out, Scrap Metal has enjoyed amazing sales. We have just a few bags left. More is coming, though there may be a slight delay, perhaps a week. If we run out, you won't be able to purchase it, but please check back soon as more supply is imminent!
Please note that to fit Scrap Metal inside gondolas, you'll need to cut at least some of the material into shorter fragments. It is possible with strong scissors. Note that PLA is "spring loaded" when cut, so wear safety goggles and work inside a cardboard box. To make a fixed load or pile, blend Scrap Metal PLA fragments with a 50/50 matte medium & water mixture.
Grab the forklift! Now you can easily manage your high-quality recycled steel, aluminum, and other materials.Scrap Metal Bins come to you pre-rusted and sometimes painted, with rusty bits of Scrap Metal, Roger's special "sludge", and just the slightest touch of...(drum roll)...real metal filings! Boxes are 3D-FDM printed from PLA. You can pack 'em with Scrap Metal, too! Scrap Metal not included. Includes 9 painted & weathered bins per package.

"HIGHWAY AUTO WRECKING"
Mr. Citrus is at it again! This time it's SCRAP AUTOS, made from PLA, of course! Polylactic Acid, the filament used in 3-D printing, lends itself to all sorts of new modeling possibilities. These automobiles are rusted, busted, and ready for the scrap heap. They’ll be crushed and shred to make the highest quality recycled steel available on the market. Place one here and there to draw attention, or line ‘em up for your recycling venue. Six rusty Autos per package.

Heavy enough to ballast a gondola! Or TWO! Citrus Suggests: Paint, weather, place inside gondola, then place some SCRAP METAL on top.
weathered auto parts
on pallets
If you are rust junkie like me, you will appreciate these cast alloy auto parts on pallets in HO scale. These models come PAINTED and WEATHERED! We choose the parts, from axles, transmissions, engines, transaxles, or an assortment. Now run and grab the forklift!
Citrus ran out of room, so he's stacking them in the street. P.S., Levetating woodpiles can't be trusted.

GROCERY CART
It takes a steady hand and a variable-temperature soldering iron. You could probably connect the sides with CA too, I just haven't tried. The soldering iron is fast, also powerful and can destroy it quickly. Use the lowest temperature setting! Yes, it is indeed tiny and it is a challenge, and maybe not for everyone. But it's a neat detail you can point out and makes for GREAT photos! Includes a minimum of five carts per kit, giving you multiple chances. Metallic paint and red handles are additional detailing to be done by you. Complete instructions come with each package. The price is right so what are you waiting for? Challenge yourself, or better yet, gag-gift a buddy!
