General Store Kits; going, going, almost gone... was created by Alaska Railroader
This is to let you guys know that I just put the last 6 kits on ebay and I won't be reordering any more of them from Scale University. They sell them for $29.99 and I sell them for $24.99, and that was only because I bought few dozen and got a discount. A bunch here were wanting some last summer, I know the guy from SU so put up the money to get them cheaper for all of us. Now that we have a laser I don't think I will be stocking other company's kits B)

Karin,

Do you build kits for sale with your laser? If so, where can I look at and/or buy them?

Oh, have I designed and built our own kits! But they are awaiting instruction writing before they go on sale. I have the country church kit but it is not for the beginner:blush:
I have a small greenhouse kit that should be fairly easy to make, has a small footprint, and is "cute":laugh: We, husband Loren and I, have an ebay store "StoneBridgeDesigns" (currently empty) and will offer them there but also will mention them here on this forum as well. Thanks for asking!

Oh, except for the little general store kit. We didn't make those but they are about to go out of stock. Let me know if you want one and I'll pull it from ebay. To see it you may visit this link:
Z Scale "General Store" Laser-Cut Kit

Karin,

Thank you for offering to put it on eBay for me. I'm still not sure what I'm going to put on my micro layout. I was hoping it would feature a castle, but I'm not sure yet.

I only today received my first Z scale locomotive, caboose, track and battery powered contoller, plus a few cars. I had no idea they were so cute! I know, that word - cute - again. The track and controller are all set up and the locomotive is running. The fellow I bought it from oiled it before selling. I have my cloche next to the (relatively) large oval track and was thinking the Marklin 8818 locomotive will never run on as tight a radius as I expect to have. But there's a YouTube video that features an 8864 (almost the same as the 8818) and it runs on an even tighter radius .

Here's the same locomotive being taken apart and put back together.

I'm going to have to think about the General Store and the Greenhouse after I stare at my new train and the cloche for awhile. Thanks so much :)

Thanks, so that there is no confusion...I'm planning to put all of StoneBridgeDesigns kits on ebay and the forums for our sake.

Loren and I have had numerous requests for our creations to become kits so you guys keep an eye open for them soon. In the meantime we continue to offer up accessories that don't require instructions.

Chris, Loren watched me hit preview and it didn't tell us anything about the image being too big or not fitting. So I will have to assume that if you don't see your photo in the preview it won't show up in the post. Here is the image I wanted to put on the last post. Guess I can run a laser better than my postings:blush:

yes that's safe and correct assumption - if it doesn't show in preview, it will not show in the message when you submit it.
Just to experiment, here is reasonably large (1200x900) picture of lovely narrow gauge loco:


It seems to be showing fine, so unless the pics you are trying to insert are even larger than this it is not the size that is the problem:)
And you will see that Brad's software has automatically shrunk the picture to fit (reasonably well ;) ) inside the message
(I didn't resize it)
