Posted by: rktman56 Aug 18 2006, 09:27 PM

I have started building the Plastic Styrene Crane Kit a (HARBOR MODELS EXCLUSIVE). This kit is now offerd only by Harbor Models with laser cut plastic parts. No more tedious cutting of silk-screened plastic with a straight edge and knife. No more drilling of numerous tiny holes for hydraulic line holders. Acurracy to .001". Construction is simplfied and efficient. From the first look at the parts, the acurracy is there.

I am building this kit for a fellow modeler in Texas and will posting pictures of the build here.
