Please excuse the monotonous ?cross posting, I¡¯m trying to find the best new home for these exceptional models.
?
We¡¯re downsizing and moving, so some wonderful pieces need a new home.
?
In the later 1990s, Western Scale Models, Bill Gustafson himself, produced a set of shop tools measured from those still in use on the Sierra RR.? There were, still are, a marvel of white metal castings, beautiful.? They¡¯re in O-Sale/Quarter Inch, so they¡¯re perfect for O, On3, On30 or On2 use.? Virtually mint in perfect boxes, sealed sleeves intact.? The eight of them are, starting with a sample kit contents:
?
1? Heavy Duty Double Spindle Lathe
2? Belmont-Mills Car Wheel Borer
3? Hack Saw, Post Drill Press & Grinder
4? 28-inch Engine Lathe
5? Niles-Bemont-Pond Hydraulic Wheel Press
6? Planer
7? Radial Drill Press
8? Shop Heater & Overhead Travelling Crane
?
These show up on eBay, but their asking prices can be atmospheric.? I found actual selling prices and discounted them by 25%.? Or $500 for the lot.? Or you can make me an offer.? Shipping and insurance is extra.
