B O R Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share Posted December 31, 2019 The models will take a back seat again this year as construction is too busy which is excellent. Happy new year to one and all and next year will probably just allow me to fit in the TAARUP 307 autoswather and the front 317. When the long evenings set in I'll be back outside model building doesn't build houses or pay for much so never lose focus of ur day job I say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B O R Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 New year and new policy. I met some good customers in the model world but unfortunately more bad ones, I've always hated chasing folk for payments when I've finished a build but the last while it's just simply become a nightmare so I've decided no more building to sell, a big factor is that it doesn't pay enough anyway for all the stressful hours but it's more insulting that folk don't pay on time so I've had enough of it all, I intend concentrating on my full time job and only building models that I want for myself so my order books are now closed. Thanks to all during my time on forum and in future my completed builds can be seen on my Facebook page good luck to all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B O R Posted January 20, 2020 Author Share Posted January 20, 2020 Thank yous. But of work required on the trailer though as its a 30ft trailer so needs extended and also axle bogey cut and widened too. Gona take a while at my new batch of TAARUP mowers first and fit the trailer in as time allows. Made a good start at mowers already. I lost the grill of the volvo after painting it somehow so the grill fitted was made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
