Model Forum / General / Models / February 2005RC magazine back issue articles
Hello all, I am putting together material to build the 1/12th scale River Queen from Vic Smeed's drawing. The March issue of Engineering in Miniature, had a pleasant surprise in the form of an article on just this boat. The writer mentioned two articles on water level and gas control systems he wrote about in the following UK magazines: Radio Control Boat Modeller - Nov/Dec 1988 and Model Boats - Nov 1989 respectively. Does anyone have a copy they can scan for me, or point me in the right direction to make these controllers please? Regards GeoffH Norfolk - UK not VA >Hello all, >I am putting together material to build the 1/12th scale River Queen [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] >GeoffH >Norfolk - UK not VA Do you get a 1/12 scale model of Humphrey Bogart with that ? -- Regards, John Stevenson Nottingham, England.

I'd expected you to be more of a Hepburn/Bacall kind of a guy! Steve >Do you get a 1/12 scale model of Humphrey Bogart with that ? LOL Smart-arse! There's always one isn't there :-)) Definitely, and the broad as well, courtesy Hobby's 1/12th scale model house items plus a few other items as well. Wouldn't dream of launching a boat without someone on board to look after the fire and steam, and the other to add glamour. What good a steam boat without occupants?

Life's just too short to teach the little 'uns the art of forging. Err, why only one?

The imagery in the book was far superior to that in the film But then it always is. Mark Rand RTFM |
