An excellent range of model boats incorporating fibreglass hulls and deck housings, with wood superstructure and white metal castings. They all make up into excellent models and plenty of room for any RC equipment including steam plant. Proprieor Frank Hinchclife is a forthright chap, which can put people off but he is very experienced and has a lot of valuable help to offer.

A supplier of model boat kits, once again with fibre glass hulls and white metal fittings but often using plasticard superstructure construction. A big range of kit types and purists can sometimes knock the accuracy but they are very reasonably priced and provide a foundation for beginners and more experienced modellers to get very pleasing results.

Modellers Resource Directory-Squires Model Catalogue

Thought Id share this....

***Stuck Steve has supplied this useful information on the Squires Modellers and engineers catalogue.

Thank you Steve.

Hi all,

I was given information about a company called Squires who sell model and craft supplies. I was given their phone number and when I rang the guy said he would send me a catalogue which I received today. Had a look through it and they have loads of stuff at slightly better than normal prices.

Anyway, if you want one of these books which are free here is the details.

My appologies if I am still in the dark ages and happen to be the last person in the world to hear about these people but I thought I'd mention anyway lol.

While I am here, regarding a previous post I made about scale rulers, well success came my way finally - Squires sell exactly what I want!!

YYYAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!

​

Best wishes all,

Steve
