This is in 1/35 scale - it has resin printed parts. CSM hope this will be the first in a range of 1/35 motorbikes

CSM first did this for the wire wheels of their 1/35 armoured cars, then the wheels for their 1/32 aircraft, so this is a progression - I'll be interested to see to what extent the resin 3D parts are................

I know its do-able Neil. Just wondering If it will ever get down to scale model accessories price in our life time. Them plastic ones from Copper state look rather breakable.

It's only a matter of time before the technology gets cheap enough

I'm finding that's true - If someone had said that I'd be printing 3D models out at home 10 years ago, I would have been very sceptical!!

These always seem to be a waste of a truck to me. A big thirsty truck to move limited weapons.

I think the radiogram looks WAY more modern than the gramophone ,although I am happy to be corrected if anyone can be bothered

I’d agree there, but I might be wrong as European tastes and designs could well be ahead of the UK in some ways and behind in others…..
To me though, the long case clock looks like a fifties item, as does the radio (or wireless as they’d call it) but the gramophone looks to be from the twenties or thirties. Still a useful set for a dio builder though.

Gotcha! :tears-of-joy:
