I have a set of their Victor weighted wheels.  Very nice.  Admittedly, they'd look better on a model of a Victor but they're doing quite nice service on something else I'm presently building.  :)

A Vulcan?  IIRC, the wheels are the same on both types.

Their website looks a right bag of bolts. :(

Half the pages are empty and much of the rest refers to stuff that they don't make in the first place.

Oh, so he is the guy that does the update set for the 1/72 Hobbycraft one? I wouldn't mind a set myself if that's what you're on about.

Must say my professional ears pricked up when I read that. ;D  ;)

18 months left. So, likely, at least a 2 year sentence, but is that bottom-end or top-end (non-parole period or full sentence)? :unsure:

Still leaves a lot of doors to open; nothing nice behind any of them, but some are particularly unpleasant.
