Foss' Landing with two boats group build
Hi yaw!
SWSM has recently re-released the famous Foss Landing kit in a two boat version which sold out very quickly. A number of people have decided to build the kit together in the Fall (2014). The discussion thread is here to record the fact that there is going to be a "group" build of the kit.
A number of people have already shown interest in doing the build and stated so in another discussion thread (The section starts here, http://www.sierrawestscalemodels.com/vanforum/discussion/375/loco-and-service-shops-donkey-repair-yard-build/p5)
( Karl, is it possible to move those posts into this discussion thread?)

This is going to be a great build thread being able to follow along with you all. I'm looking forward to you keeping each other motivated, pushing each other forwards with new ideas and most of all having fun with a great kit !

Now, if all of us could motivate Brett to put together a small release of Shelby's, we'd have a complete waterfront.

Understand. Thank you for putting the suggestion to rest.

Brett, you could do a "Marty" no castings kit and send it to me only, hint hint?...
Well, there is no way I'm going to be very deep into The Shipyard, so I'll just have to work on both. I have enough room to do that.
Marty, I found Shelby's with all bags sealed . . . I have payment enroute.
John
Hope you didn't find it where I found it later today.

I guess I will have to scratch build a marine works when the time comes; sometime in 2016.
I'm happy with my backlog of kits and don't "need" anymore.
Waiting.
Marty
Ken, no it's not done yet...I'm not that fast.

While this kit is in the wrong scale for me, I'll be watching this group build eagerly. I'm sure to pick up some new ideas/techniques.

Doc, I did a Google search/request to purchase, received a reply, Brett added pedigree to the seller and I bought a new and opened Foss. I intend to also purchase another opened but unused SMSW kit from the same person. Excellent experience.
Bottom line Marty, Doc & Ken is we should continue to plan.
Respectfully,
John
There is currently a new Foss for sale on eBay...it ends in a week or maybe just a day less. Don't know if it has the two boats though, no mention of them in the advert. Kind regards, Greg.
