Eileens Emporium Newsletter January 2016

[derekrussan]

All of us at Eileen's Emporium wish you a very Happy and Prosperous new year.

We would like to thank all our customers for their support during 2015, and look forward to continuing to supply you all during 2016.

We are very sorry that we were unable to attend the East London Finescale Show. This was due to health issues that left us too short of staff to cover two shows on the same weekend. The issues are now thankfully resolved.

NEW PRODUCTS

We have a few new products to introduce to you this month, these include:

Ultra Mask, a 9" x 6ft roll of paint masking film. This is easy to cut to shape, stretchable enough for most tasks and at only £5.90 a roll is excellent value.

Larger diameters of Heat Shrink tube are now in stock.

OBSOLETE PRODUCTS

We have just been informed that Vallorbe will no longer manufacture 4" engineers files, so what we have is all we will get.

We are investigating other sources of quality files.

EXHIBITIONS

As we will be at both Bristol 0 Gauge and Southampton on the weekend of 30/31 January and also at Leamington and Warwick and Kettering on the weekend of 5/6 March, some stock will only be available at one of the venues. The metal sections (L, U, H/I), small Brass and Nickel flat strips, Plastruct and Airbrushing Demonstration will be taken to Southampton and Leamington and Warwick, so if you want any of these for Bristol or Kettering please pre-order.

Most of the other normal show stock lines will be at all shows, but as always if there is something specific you want please pre-order.

STOCK LEVELS

We are pleased to say that al l of the outstanding items mentioned in our last newsletter are now back in stock, specifically:

DRHM080 0.8mm Dormer Drills

DRHM050 0.5mm Dormer Drills
