Stoney Creek on Face Book- I
finally did a page on Facebook for Stoney Creek Designs. I
thought this would be good way to communicate with other
modelers. Post pictures of my layout as work progresses and show
updates of new products. So, please, stop by, have a look, leave
a comment and let me know what you think. You don't need
to join Facebook to visit the SCD page.

UP COMING EVENT I will be
attending the
Midwest Narrow Gauge show in Canfield OHIO on March 22-24
. In addition to my SCD products, I recently cleaned house,
and will have loads of bits and pieces. I mean loads, 4 tables
full of kits and parts. Everything from older kits (not SCD)
left over kits parts, airbrushes, wood, plastic parts, parts,
parts and more parts. This should be a scratch builders delight.
Also, I will be doing a demo/clinic on the techniques and
material I used to build my layout. I'll be building a 18"x24"
module which will be given away at the end of the show.

Old Stoney Creek
KITS - I had mentioned here that I found a number of old
SCD kits. I completely underestimated how many people still
wanted them. Did I get emails? Geez, did I.. Not sure when or if
I will be selling them. Reason? Not sure how or at what price...
|
On30 turnouts - I have a few On30 #6 and #4 turnouts for sale. All are brand new, never
installed and professionally built.

Dr. Mikes
- The glue I use and
recommend for ALL my kits. Don't forget to order a bottle when
paying for or ordering a kit.

On-line
Payments - The PayPal buttons seem to be working well for
most people. I am using PayPal's shopping cart. So, you can pay
via your PayPal account or use your credit card. Any problems
let me know.

2012 UPDATE
As I've said before, on this page, I am doing a 2 story
commercial brick and stone building for 2012. Footprint is 12"
long and 5" deep. I'm well into creating the masters and, I must
say, this could be some of my best stone and brick I have ever
done and wait till you see the level of architectural detail. I
realize some modelers might not have room for, or want a
building this long. So, I'm only making 50 of them. However, I
am making another kit using the same stone walls and details.
This will be a single retail store with a footprint of only 5" x
6". I will only be making 50 of these as well.

2013
Though I didn't get
much feedback on the mine idea, I think I am going to go ahead
with it. My idea is a small gold or silver type of mine (could
be coal or whatever) with a vertical shaft so you don't need a hill side to set it on. Small
footprint with lots of support structures, mine office, tool
shed, miners cabin, dynamite shed, etc. Would love to hear some
thoughts on this.

About
Reservations
- You can reserve a kit any time, with no money down. Even long before there are any
pictures or prices posted, a lot of people do. That gives me
an idea about demand and helps determine, to some degree, how many I will produce.
Once the pilot model is built I
will post pictures and the price. At this time I will email
everyone who has reserved a kit that details have been posted.
At this point if it is not to your liking, too big, too
expensive, whatever, this is the time to cancel. If I don't hear
from you I will assume you will take the kit when issued. I
totally understand unforeseen circumstances. I'm just asking, if at all possible, try not to wait
till the kit is in the box and I'm ready to ship to cancel your
reservation.
