DaisyDots Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Many years ago I acquired three Slater's coach kits from a certain auction site. Having only recently decided to attempt building one, I find that no construction details was in any of them. Would anyone have a copy I could buy or borrow? Have asked Cooper Craft who now have the Slater's range, but no reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike morley Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Which kits are they? Also, if you take a look at the relevant thread in the Small Suppliers sction, you will see we have written Coopercraft off as a lost cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim.snowdon Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Are we talking 7mm or 4mm scale, as I didn't think Slaters ever did any carriage kits in 4mm. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrkirtley800 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Slaters produced some plastic kits for Midland vehicles. I built a couple of passenger brake vans, and have two low roofed 6 wheelers yet to build. I can copy the destructions for these if you wish but they may not give you what you want, since yours are GW. I also built up an etched brass kit for a Midland 6 wheeled carriage, which, I believe came from Slaters, all are to 4mm scale. Derek 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
