Radio interview with our local hobby shop


Recommended Posts

Our local hobby shop closed a few years ago, but a business which builds high-end models for the military and other customers moved to Uralla, which is just 22kms down the New England Highway from where I live.  He has now started stocking model making supplies, and only has the good stuff, so that's where I head for my paints, tools etc. instead of buying online.

 

Recently he did a radio interview about his business.  He builds a lot of ships for the Navy etc. which sell for tens of thousands of dollars.

 

His business website here, has some pics of models they have built over the years:

He is such a good ambassador for this hobby! We seem to be a little shy when it comes to publicizing our skills. 

It's great to hear that 3D models and Engineering Drawings don't suffice when it comes to visualizing the finished ship and that a model, granted, a BIG model, is the perfect solution!

And his models do look outstanding!

Thanx for this interview Thommo!
