mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.. ??? sorry.....thanks Kiwi......a typo on my part....must have been too much :coffee or ......:beer :shhh ......as the company is OZ.......... I would like to see any comments as offered by our own 'south of the border' members etc............Derek
Hi Derek,
Is good to see some decent products available from down-under instead of sourcing from half way around the world. That makes boilers, engines and paddlewheels all from Oz, now we just need some down-under paddle boats to put them all in.
Nice find and an interesting site.
cheers

I thought we might produce those over the next week or three Harry? Oh, and as well as that can I please have three Footy Scows to sell on Sunday, Footies are taking off in Waihi. No pressure mind, thanks, Ian.
Hi Derek,
This company also handles the P.M. Research range of engines I only found out after mine arrived from the States. I have recently bought some taps and a die in M.E. thread and their delivery is great along with the packaging, I had the goods 2 days after ordering. If they are like this on all orders I will continue to rebuild my tap & die sets, someone decided they needed them more than me but didn't bother to even leave a note. :great:bravo

According to the model boat press, these products are available from Jo TiKa in theU/K
Has anyone actually bought an engine from them and can share any impressions about the quality?
