I know it seems like it takes forever for the next kit to come out, but I’d like to share some statistics with you folks.  Since September of 2014, we have averaged 1.2 kits released per month.  Here’s what they were and how they sold to date.

09/30/14 Union Hotel (6)                  10/31/14 Hotel Bruce (8)            11/21/14 Rural Church (20)

11/22/14 National Stove (16)           11/23/14 Clyde Puffer (23)          01/29/15 Creeky Roofing (13)

02/05/15 Girder Bridge (30)             03/01/15 Wheelwright Shop (21)  04/26/15 Corn Crib (11)

05/24/15 Coal/Grain Elevators (8)    06/22/15 Carolina Casting (11)    07/18/15 Photo Studio (6)

I’d like to hear of another manufacturer (Not Chinese) that brings you more products.  OH, by the way, if these statistics mean anything, you will be getting more BRIDGES, CHURCHES & BOATS.

One last stastistic and then I’ll shut up.  Of the list above, the girder bridge has sold 30 kits at $5.95 each.  That’s a total income of $178.50.  Even a relatively simple kit like this has at least a hundred hours in the development.  You do the math.  That’s a buck seventy-eight an hour.  I gotta look for a job in China!
