First Week of Fall!

Here we are just a couple of days into Fall and our News Weather person said we should expect 7-10 more days of 90-ish temperatures--YUK! And we've not had rain of any value in weeks which is great if you don't want the grass to grow, but even the local Georgia recreational lake are down 5-6 inches which is not good for boating enthusiasts!

All that said, we've got a bunch of casting caught up and our HO & N scale Corrugation replenished. We spoke with some more folks interested in our business since the last Newsletter and there are quite a few interested prospects. Even though we've been very busy all Summer long, in another month our selling season will really start to ramp up and may make it even more of a hectic transition process; time will tell.
One of our Military modelers (Terry Bates) sent in some amazing images of a World War II airplane that has been weathered with Doctor Ben's. We've had several Buyer Prospects ask about our Customer Base. Yes, we have many, many model railroads in ever scale/gauge imaginable as well as military modelers, jewelry artists, 1:12 scale horse saddle modelers, customer guitarists, interior decorators, and a bunch more literally all over the work. I won't drop any names, but we even have a number of celebrities some who have received an Oscar or more.
That's it for today. We'll see you in the Hobby Room ... just as soon as Pat gets over here and helps me put stuff away from all the remodeling that we've had done!

We receive lots of weathering & finish questions every week and every so often we receive a question that i feel other modelers may be interested in reading:
"I have some of your black weathering solution/stain. I want to use it (or something more effective) to highlight the seams and gaps around the various panels and doors on a Galloping Goose model without leaving much residue on the main part of the panels."
REPLY: After stirring the Doctor Ben's product real well, use a spoon to move some of the Doctor B

en's into a small cup and add half as many spoons of Isopropyl Alcohol (70%) into the same cup and stir. The use a small round brush to pick up the mixture and aim the brush into the seams and gaps around the various panels and doors.
Wet a clean paper towel with the alcohol to wipe off any Doctor Ben's from where you don't want it. Allow it to dry and if it's not dark enough, repeat until you like what you see.
Pretty simple, huh? Send us some pics of the finish model we can post on our website! Got more questions? ASK!

the Rustic Stone & Frame Factory Kit HO & O Scales

Thomas A. Yorke Enterprises is now Scale Model Masterpieces

Currently, a "work in progress", this 1978 Thomas A. Yorke Ent kit (Now Scale Model Masterpieces) is receiving whole new (and some original) update. Most everything you see in the images as well as quite a bit of other stuff that you don't see as this update progresses. Keep checking back at our website Blog for the updates—we've got some great ideas planned!

All of the casting for this model are made from "original" Thomas A. Yorke molds/masters and cast in Labstone/Dental (Buff) for much more superior detail than casting made of Hydrocal© can produce.
The windows, doors, and some other details are Grandt Line product molded plastic. Doctor Ben's Roofing material is provided as well as the instruction for its application.
Each kit has updated instructions are to make construction more applicable to changes of materials and modeling techniques.

This brand new update includes detailed construction drawings (SEE adjacent THUMBNAILS), scale lumber, Precision Cut template & content sheets, barrels and boxes, outhouse/privy (pictured), weathering instructions, color photos, instruction booklet, and much more.

The original 1978 #O-9105 kit was originally produced in the produced by Thomas A Yorke and although there have been some variations, this craftsman kit includes the best aspects of previous versions..

And yes, Doctor Ben's Weathering would look good on the roof. At right is the Front Elevation view of this kit. Booklet Instruction include is a color photographs!
