ECLIPSE TOOLS

We have been asked by a number of customers if we can get Eclipse branded tools. We have now found a source for these and already have in stock some Piercing Saw Frames and Blades, Handy Scribers, Engineers Scribers and Centre Punches. We are awaiting delivery of Pin Vices and some of the finer blades. These will be added to the web site as time permits.

NEO AIRBRUSH SPARES

We now have in stock spare needles, nozzles and chucking nuts for NEO CN and BCN airbrushes as well as some other parts for these and other brushes. These will appear on the website as time permits. We can obtain spares for most branded airbrushes.

MODEL MATES

Model Mates have significantly increased their range of dies. We have most of them in stock and are waiting for the rest from our suppliers. They will be added to the website as time permits.

EXHIBITIONS

Thank you to those who made our lives easier at Bristol by pre-ordering. It really did help. Having covered two shows at the same time it is not something we want to do again, but it looks like the same clash with Southampton will force the same situation next year.

In March we will be attending the Leamington and Warwick show for the first time.

Please note Scalefour North is at a new venue for 2014 - Queen Elizabeth Grammar School, 158 Northgate, Wakefield, WF1 3QX

At York show we are at a new location on the ground floor. As we understand it Langley Models have moved to where Modelex were and we are taking the space vacated by Langley.

SPECIAL OFFER

Our February offer is a free 1kg of abrasive worth £10 with each Sand Blaster. So for £40 (£47.50 including UK delivery) you get a Sand Blaster and 1kg of Abrasive.

WEATHERING COURSE

Following on from the success of our soldering courses, we will be offering courses in weathering. They will be limited to 4 people per course to allow a high level or personal attention. They will take place at weekends in Gloucestershire on dates when we do not have shows. The cost will be £120 and include all materials, tools and lunch. If you are interested please get in touch.

We have some interest in this already, if you have expressed an interest by email we will contact you when we start to identify dates.
