1/2 PRICE DVD SALE

OK folks, when was the last time you bought a computer with a DVD drive?  The’re getting harder and harder to find.  So, we’ve decided to put all of our existing stock of DVD’s on sale for HALF PRICE!  Some are already sold out, but until there gone, you have a great opportunity to add to your Clever Models resources.  Haven’t quite figured out if or how I will display the amount left, but for now, here’s the list.  We are also looking around to see if there are any unsold items still in various shops, so some sold out items may become available.  If an item sells out, your transaction may still go through.  We will contact you to give you some options.  In the future, for those of you that simply MUST have a tangible item to hold in your hand, will be transitioning to flash drives.

This is how to NOT store a paper model.

I have been working on the Electric Overhead Traveling Crane for well over a year now.  Actually closer to two.  The problem I am having with the completion is coming up with a suitable operators cab.  Well, when I hit a stone wall, I typically put the kit aside for a while and just occasionally think about it until the lightbulb, over my head, comes on.  Well, that finally happened with the crane, but when I went to unpack it, I discovered that soneone (me) must have stored something rather heavy on top of the box it was in.  Well, now with fresh resolve, I am begining again to do a test build, this time in HO scale, rather than my traditional O.  I just thought you might get a hoot from the picks of my inspiration.

This is what the crane should really look like.

As usual, when we ask MMR Jim Gore to do a test build, he muddles over things for a while and them comes up with something better that we could ever have imagined.  Again, he smacks a home run with this build of the crane.  While, the kit we gave him was really not done, (and still isn’t) you can see from these pix that not having every part exactly figured out, doesn’t deter him from producing a great build.  Another masterpiece Jim.  Thanks.
