    Here's the latest status on my CP wide-vision caboose development.
    The almost complete one is version III, and the funny thing is that all parts are holding together as is, those models have currently no glue on them.

    Hopefully Christmas vacation is coming along, I may have more time to work on it then!:bear-tongue:

    I'm very glad you are playing with Lazerboard now Ben, saves money and is easier to work with! Your caboose designs are top notch, and will only get better with each new model! [​IMG]

    Hello Ben,
    Great Cabooses, the CN Versions and I hope you have the CP version on the market soon. I have 7 of them built and would like to see decals available for more roads, BC Rail had a couple of them. And like Robert said, if you make the new ones in lazerboard that would be a huge improvement. Congrats on producing a great kit.

    Yes, If logic serves right, this one should follow my other kits. Will see how it goes with the marketing department, LOL!

    LOL! I got a kick in the B..ls when I receive my lazerboard sheets 2 weeks ago. $78.00 of taxes I was not expecting, I had send it at my job and I did not had the right amount on me, you have to pay cash the post guy before you can take the package with you (which in this case was a girl) but this was a crappy moment LOL!. It is always like that with custom, head or tales when you import stuff, sometime you get the fees, sometime you don't. never the less, even if lazerboard has become equivalent to my veneer pricing, I'm sticking with it, for sure, plus I found that mixing material has given better results, like the veneer is still better for the roofs parts (as seen in the pic).

    Yes, other roads should be in the plans. This wide-vision one was on more roads than the CN one's. I have quite a few photo's of the BC version and others too.....



    Thanks for the comments guys

    Only one place on earth so far. At Northeastern Scale Lumber Company (but it is not on sales on their site, it is internal), but you will need to show your company registration number, and also the proof you will only produce architectural kits with this material (Why? Somekind of agreement with their clients), took me 2 long weeks of negotiation, of proofs and papers, and bla bla bla, to finally acquire the stuff. Not easy I tell you!
