Your link brought back some names from the past Karl.

What has happened to the posts we enjoyed from Stu Schaller, Arie Bras, and Crittenden Rumford?

At one time there were more wooden models

I seem to remember a prolific producer In U.K. was it John Shelford who also made lovely objects. Maybe Graeme or John or Chris can cover for my fading memory.
