KR Models

Not yet, we haven't secured enough interest in the N gauge version, but the 'Expression of interest' is now live again, so hopefully, this will continue to gain more interest.

The tooling is scheduled to commence in July, so we are still on track, (pardon the pun). We haven't come off the rails just yet. However, we are having a few issues with the new website payment portal. The cart and the merchant processing company are not talking to each other. You will receive your model. We will have the EP samples at Warley this year.

There is a tempory fix for the payment merchant now, use the PayPal option. Their customer services helpline doesn't open on the weekend.

We have noticed there is an issue with the website, we are working on it now to get it fixed. We will send out a notification once it's complete. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.

I do have a business license for my registered address, which I am not sharing. I do not need to register with Companies House as I'm a sole proprietor. I haven't filed taxes in the UK cause I'm a non-resident of the UK. I have filed taxes since 2009 here in Alberta. Scalecast Mouldings was mine in North America, but it was more of a hobby than a business but has long since gone.

That's a little harsh

Only temporally while we work on the new website. We really want to see the GT3 in N and O gauges.

Please excuse my naivety of not being on here sooner, for which I humbly apologise. That being said, the whole process of being a new entity in the world of modeling has been a very sharp learning curve. I was on the other side of the hobby, the outside looking in. Research is everything, to know if a product will succeed. So to produce a CAD drawing before you even know if the model will sell is business suicide. You would invest all that money for it to fail, so it's done slowly with as much free research as possible. So yes you may see posts of future models we would like to bring to market, but if there is insufficient interest, then it dies right there.

I am not aware of this issue, what happened?

I must apologise, I hadn't noticed the same form on both links.

The comments that I took offense at were against my credibility as a person without any evidence. That had nothing to do with the GT3 project.

No, you can post away. I don't have a problem with being open, to a degree. What I do take offense at is when someone openly criticizes my integrity on an open forum, without any shred of evidence. The proof in my business and model making skills will be in the finished product. Sales have been very strong for the GT3, which is very encouraging for the next project. There is no deadline for the N or O gauge EOI, as we are low on the numbers for both so far.

I've just checked the website, the O gauge is first with the N gauge below it.

And still open for N gauge too

There's still work to do, but it shows the work that we are doing to make it happen.

Actually, we didn't start this post. But we had to announce our intention to build the GT3 as we had no idea it would sell. Ok, it's not to everyone's taste and therefore research had to be done. Our initial investment was purely to find out was there a possible market for this model, we have since been proven correct. I'm not even going to mention just how many other models have been very sketchy in their interpretation of the actual example.

It took a lot of time to collate the relevant material to even reach the decision of embarking on this model, not to watch it fail.

Oh John, even the NRM doesn't have 104, we're doing ok thanks.

It's not been easy to get this far, but we are moving forward and the July window for the start of the tooling is a goal, along with our final delivery schedule of April/May 2020. At least the rivet counters can't have too much complain over, they have nothing to refer to.

John, we are making progress, and it was more to show that we are moving forward. It's a marathon, not a sprint. We HAVE to get it right the first time or we will fail as a company. Have some faith.

Hi David, We are getting more interest, but it's a very slow uptake.

Be still your twitchy palms, you guys have no patience at all So it has been suggested that we were a scam, just out to take peoples money, have no credibility at all. Yet the sales of the GT3 do not support this theory. So just to show openness here is two of the development stages of our CAD work. As you can see the chassis is almost complete and the basic shape of the body is nearly there. In a few weeks, the CAD work will be complete and the Tooling starts in July.

We have started the research of the Hush Hush, it's gonna take some time to bring to market.

Here's a little teaser of what we should have by the end of the month

There's where we have to look at the production costs vs customers vs price. Over price it, not as many will buy, price too low, you need more customers.
