Would you consider making any more copies of the resin shells? I’d love one of the Bristols!

Hi Mike,

One of the reasons I sent them to the UK was because I don't have the equipment or really, the inclination, to get into resin casting. At 75, I'm supposed to be winding down on silly things like toy cars and just sitting in the garden with a beer (probably red wine) and a book.

This why I have just made two trips to the local dump with the contents of a couple of walls I've demolished in our new house!! Just all the downstairs ceilings, a new main bathroom and decoration throughout and then the beer and wine beckons. The bedrooms, en-suite and the kitchen are done, thankfully. A couple of years should do it.

I relied on my nephew to forward the package as the resin man didn't want to post to France. He was sent it on the 14th February. I got it today!!

So....basically, if you know someone in France who does casting, I'm quite happy to send the mould to them. Not sure when I'm going to get time to turn them into slot cars. Must contact Phil Smith for some more Pitmann 156Bs. They suit my track here better than most motors.
