Steve, youre really big on renovating the forums this week

For one thing, its been long over due.

But the reason this week is I work the front counters at the jewelry store during the day, lets just say its been on the dead side. So much so, my butt hurts :help:

Steve, does OSE have an actual store? I have family in Mass. and thought it would be kinda neat to swing by on my next visit.

I keep all the hulls, chargers, batteries and rtrs at my jewelry store. The store is rather large, but an odd shape which gives me a corner to keep a display and a 3000 sq foot basement for the large stuff.

The small stuff is at my workshop. Its been split like that since I started.

Steven,
I moved some threads here (as usual)

Anyone seeing threads in the wrong place due to the recent changes, please let a Mod know. I tried my best with the recent moves, but I know there will be some threads I overlooked. Thanks!

You would have to either order online with a credit card and in the notes area add "store pickup", then the s&h gets refunded, or order online with the money order option and pay with cash at the store. Either way you should email after, so we can arrange a pickup day.

Steven, thanks for the mini/micro spot! You have been on a roll lately. I'm crazy about small boats as you can see by my signature. More economical and faster scale speeds. FTR, I disagree about eco being ugly. Beauty is as beauty does, and eco (economical) is crazy fast! Again, thx.

Your right, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I just rather see the scale looking boats.

I agree, I'm in the hopes that Aquacraft will make a Mini Hydro that looks like the MiniCat. I think that is missing in their line up and a Mini Rigger.

If there is a problem with that, it might be that when you scale down a rigger or hydro, you quickly run out of room for components!

I like the aspect of the smaller boats. They are cheaper to build and maintain. I think the best part of them is I can run them in a few of the smaller places around.

Danny took the time to move all the "mini" associated threads to this new area.
So it was over a longer period of time.

By the way I spoke to Jim at ABC, he said he was taking to you. I tried to get him thinking about smaller props in the 35mm area.

:iagree:and fast! How do you like your SX Evolution?

I talked to Jim at ABC but decided I can't really carry a bunch of props. You're right though about some smaller props. I talked to him about that too. Looks like there's a large contingent of MINI followers here so wouldn't hurt for you to have them. Actually, you need 30, 32, 35 mm sizes. Most likely will need 3mm and 4mm shaft size.

Steven, I'll second that selection. Jim is spot on. But please include 34mm in both shaft sizes as well.

Jim(ABC) said he's having some issues in the way he makes with molds with the smaller props. From the sounds of it, its not going to be anytime soon.
