Do you want 1:200 GSE? Feeler post.

B-16707 · 08-21-2008, 04:12 PM

How many of you would want to buy Ground Support Equipment from me?

The Story
I personally dont have time to make these but my housemate does and I know he has the skills plus im offering all my capital (aka all my CAD design software, my tools, plastics, etc) to him to use. So he has no start up costs. This dude is talented so im trying to inspire him to offer up his skills!

The Offerings
-busses
-cargo loaders

The Prices
-Im guessing somewhere straddling $20per item as these are all handbuilt customs. All to exact scale measured from the real vehicles and done on my Vectorworks CAD program.

The Reason for this Post
-I want my housemate to see just how many people are interested in this stuff so he can get some motivation and use this thread as physical evidence of interest. If there isnt a huge demand then of course nothing will be done.

Here are some prototype pics from back in the day. He hasnt built one currently but is still practicing to perfect his skill.

here is the prototype bus he made out of paper. just a prototype. he is currently experimenting in producing them in plastic. this bus is 100% faithfully reproduced from the original down to the inch using CAD software

and here are my cargo loaders that i made that he will try to emulate and improve upon. possibly reproduced in plastic too.

(btw, where the heck did i put my emirates 744F??!!! oh crud)

B-16707 · 08-21-2008, 04:42 PM

its probably in my stash somewhere, i just havent seen it recently to remember where i put it.

maverick231 · 08-21-2008, 04:45 PM

lol hope you find it though its a great aircraft

i saw that you have a UPS B744F from RS/SM where did you get that from?

thank you

B-16707 · 08-21-2008, 04:49 PM

all my SM and RS models come directly from the people at Riseoon in Taiwan. i dont buy elsewhere.

Graham Bridges · 08-21-2008, 04:54 PM

Could your house mate reproduce something retro like the attached ?

Graham

B-16707 · 08-21-2008, 04:58 PM

hmm those retros are interesting but i think with all those curves, its rather unlikely.

mjabbasi · 08-21-2008, 05:01 PM

Oh in all ways. Very lively lol.

Phedre200 · 08-21-2008, 05:03 PM

I'm interested but I would like to have a better idea of what the set will contain. Would it include the boarding ramps etc or did you get those elsewhere?

just the cargo loaders and buses. all sold individually and separately. im just judging interest. there no physical products yet. and no guarantee of any ever if my housemate doesnt wanna do it.

I know Jesus of the 1:400 forum has made historic looking airstairs that people can print and build. (if in case anyone is looking for those)

WAH.. what is your cargo loader made of? Plastic? It look so real... like the same as herpa catering truck and towbear..

Blastnova · 08-21-2008, 09:22 PM

I would like to have the cargo loaders.

FAEDC3 · 08-21-2008, 10:12 PM

I'm in for both...

smoothjazz · 08-22-2008, 02:53 AM

Buses are awesome... I'm wondering if Herpa or Hogan perhaps come out with airport pax buses like that soon...

win_arc · 08-22-2008, 08:06 AM

BuddyK · 08-22-2008, 08:28 AM

Yes ... 1:200 needs more !!

I confess that I have been thinking along the same lines ...

Buddy

B-16707 · 08-22-2008, 01:15 PM
