Looks good John.
Are you selling plans for this crane, or just the completed models?
(I visited your webpage, ( Penola Toy Factory - Home ), but it's obviously still under construction.)

Hello Hermit,
I am not selling plans they come from Toys & Joys. I am only selling completed article. It is Limited Edition (6 in series) collectors item and it is aimed at serious collectors market - if such market exists in Australia or indeed in the world. I am selling it for $AU 650-00. That pays me under a dollar an hour; perhaps I should ask for government subsidy to keep me manufacturing in Australia.
My web page is under construction - similar to NBN. However, you will find more information on my Facebook page at:
