R
ecent technology has made model kits cut with laser
beams possible. Commonly known as laser kits, the
parts are usually cut from wood. Economies of design
and production have made small production runs possible, al-
lowing for a great variety of offerings.
Laser kits usually assemble into structure models, but there are
also rolling stock, boats, and aircraft models for sale. Featur-
ing extremely accurately made parts and simple instructions,
laser kits fall midway between shake-the-box and advanced
craftsman kits. Many offer the advantages of both worlds; now
it's possible to achieve the built-from-scratch look with a short
learning curve.
Every town needs a place to meet and eat, and the small coast-
al town of Marshfield is no exception. Bar Mills Modelworks
is one of a number of manufacturers who offer quality laser
products, and their Sweaty Betty’s O scale kit was just what I
was looking for. I’ve added a quick interior, new graphics, and
altered the kit with a little kitbashing. So let’s plunge in and get
to work.
