Announcing the grand opening of Ma's Resin


Recommended Posts

Hi All:

I've started a part time resin business for custom casting & machining. I have a list & parts on my fotki at http://public.fotki.com/cnaind/

I will have some kits, but mostly specials for fellow builders who need a part for a rare kit, a project, restoring a promo or diecast. Your master/sample or mine. Parts available in resin (white, tan or colored) or soft rubber.

Thanx for looking!

Congrats! Nice items, I especially have an affinity for the Amphicar. Back in 72, a female friend had one! Leaked like a cheese grater!

Only advice, but when you give a time for delivery, stick with it. Give the customer satisfaction and you will go far. Too many recent resin shops turn up and neglect that portion. Let me know when you get that Amphicar up and running, I'm in for one!

nice stuff! question? would be casting "TUNER" tyres? the thin walled street tread type!

thank you very much! Brandon

Basically, I'm open to anything. If you have a sample I'll be happy to cast it or if there's a kit part I might have just let me know what kit it's from.

Thanks for looking at my stuff & the nice comments!

:D Good luck Al, hope all goes well. Iknow I'm looking forward to checking you out. ;)

Like I said, Good Luck -- you'll need it (I give it 3 months before some LOUDMOUTH puts in a Rant)

no reflection on you or your products -- just the nature of the beast :)

Thanks Brian. I just updated last nite with new stuff on the list. I really enjoy it & have a long list of items to cast.

Do you ever go to the hobby shop in Sturbridge on Rt.20? I have several customers in Southbridge & always stop there when I'm in town. He has a good stock there.

Thanks again!

Al, good to see you getting started in the resin buisness!

What are you getting for the Amphicar? I've always liked them and I have tons of great reference shots, as one has "docked" at the Saratoga Automobile Museum for quite some time now.

Hey Billy:

Nice to hear from you. Thanks for the kind words.

The Amphicar isn't for sale yet; I'm still working on the master. I'll let you know when it's available. And thanks for the offer of the photos.

Hope to see you soon. <_<

What would it take to make some disk brakes like the ones Pegasus sells? I can get them through hobbylinc for $2.59 for a set of 4 in chrome. Can you do cheaper than that?

Hi Jim:

I don't know what the Pegasus disks look like so I'd have to check it out. I'm not offering any parts with plating yet, either. I'm sure I would be less than 2.59+shipping from HL but I don't have anything to offer right now.

Thanks for asking! Check my fotki site for new items every so often.

Al, I have some things layin around here that I'd like copies of if you can do it. In particular, the bench seat from a 1968 Olds Toronado. It's VERY nice,looks like two Strato Bucket seats connected to each other, with a bench seat and bucket seat backs. They were a higher cost option on the larger B-bodied 66/71 G.M. cars. I also have ONE white walled Slick and Mag wheel set up from the Monogram "Lil Coffin". They're 4 peices The Mag, a whitewall insert, the tire itself,then a backing plate. Is something like this up your alley? If your interested, just let me know,an hopefully we can work something out. :D
