  1. I think the big part was they could keverage off the 57 ford kit. Not sure if the numbers would have worked if they had to start from scratch. Also I would think good sales of the first version also helped.
  2. Congrats Rob always good to be recognized for being a good worker.
  3. I put them in the order I did because first and foremost whoever takes over has to have the skills to do it. Second a component buyer is also necessary for the crowdfunding proposal to work and for the Holthauses to be confortable to the potential buyer will keep the good name.
  4. Great start. The silver really looks good.
  5. Great idea. Several of the cigar stores I go to sell the good wooden cigar boxes for about $5.
  6. I think the first big issue is that whomever would buy the business is capable of maintaining the quality and customer service. Second is the financial part. Somehow a figure needs to determine what the selling price is. Once that is determined a good proposal needs to be done for a crowfunding campaign. This seems like an ideal situation for crowdfunding. Just a thought.
  7. Nice. Great color choice.
  8. Beautiful work. Very clean. Great choice on the paint. .
  9. N7cely done. Very clean.
  10. Beautiful model. Great choice on the color.
  11. Happy Birthday Ray.
  12. Another thing I see helping is for them to preview the work with 3d printers before commiting to tooling. I would guess in most cases issues like a part being too big and require filling in and recutting get nixed because of cost and time. Fixes that require material removal would seem more likely to be done.
  13. Nice start.
  14. Whatever you say you have all the answers. Me I'm going to work on building one of my flawed models.
  15. Very nice. Super clean. The crates look great.
  16. I stand by my comment if you don't think a product meets your expectations then don't buy it. If you do you are a hypocrite because you are accepting the mediocrity that you are critizing. It is up to the consumer to decide if a product is worth their money.
  17. Well put. Sums up this issue well. Utimately the consumer votes with their wallet. If you are not happy with a product then don't buy it. Its really that simple!
  18. Pictures aren't showing. Cute cat instead.
  19. You always hear about the dog that brings the slippers I like the idea he does model kits, Looking forward to seeing you build this one.
