The current status of the Whalebelly Tank Car project is - 17 persons have ordered 55 cars. Our marketing 10 makes the total 65. We will need to acquire at least 35 more car commitments to reach the minimum run of 100 units to achieve our cost goals. If you feel this project is worthwhile, please see our current 3D CAD model status illustration on our "Home Port" page @ WWW.SEARAILS.COM (being positive in anticipation, and ready to go to work!), and alert your Z scale friends and clubs. We'll revise the image as we build the CAD model over the next few days. We would like to close these commitments by Tuesday. Thanks, Jim Shiff PS - the 13-piece BIG RIG sets are here, look further down the "Home Port" page, and don't get "run over". We've only got 100 units in stock! AND, we've introduced them at $55.00 (good 'ol double nickle). Previous advance reservations will recieve the new price. This will also give you an understanding of the level of precise detail that can be accomplsihed using the Poly Jet process. Click on the image to enlarge, then zoom in if you can.
Hi, and thanks for asking about decals to be supplied with the BIG RIG set. Working on that now, and yes, there will be a small sheet of decals. Jim
