What's New???

The New Taubman Plans Site is now up and operational.  It is a very different design than the previous Site.  You will find listings by Ship Category as well as an alpabetical listing of all the plans.  There are several thousand Plans listed now and we are adding more on a daily basis. Also, we are currently replacing Paypal with a shopping cart, this should be finished within the week.

 

We are also updating Loyalhanna Dockyard WebSite.  We are adding hundreds of kits, semi-kits and hulls to the current site.  There is a link on the mainpage at the top to take you to the new listings, as they are updated, they are marked with *updated*.  This will also take a few days so keep checking back.  Additionally, we are putting the new shopping cart to replace Paypal on this site. 

 

The new Plans Catalog is coming along and we will be contacting those of you that have requested one from the first print shortly.

Iowa Class Battleships New Info

For those working on or just interested in the Iowa Class Battleships, we have an interesting new product.  It is a DVD covering the exquisite BB63 model that John Haynes built in 1/96 Scale.  There is about 40 minutes of footage covering the entire model frim all angles.  This is sure to be a huge aide to anybody working on any of the ships of this class.  We will be listing this DVD on the Website for sale in the next couple of days.

 

For those carrier fanatics, John is thinking of doing a similar DVD covering his CV10 Model.  As these DVD's are time consuming to produce, there will need to be a strong interest in this product to spur it on.  Anyone interested in this CV10 DVD please let us know and we will keep an up-to-date listing.  LHDockyard@aol.com

The price of these are $10.00.  Each pack has a large variety of decals and is available in 1/32 or 1/48 Scales.  Also now available is a sheet of military ship warning signs.  A large variety of signs are included on each sheet and each sign is rendered in 1/48, 1/72 and 1/96 Scales.  There will be many more products like these released regularly and we will keep you posted.

 

NEW PRODUCT

We are working on the New line of Fittings, and taking pictures for the listing.  It may take a month to get it completed as Renee is buried in WebSite Hell right now.  But we will let you know as soon as the listing goes live.

 

TIP OF THE MONTH (SAFETY TIP)

Keep in mind that when working around your battery packs in your model(s), or your car for that matter, do not wear watches, rings or other metal jewelry.  As these metal objects could short out the battery pack, not to mention the modeler.  Serious burns happen in these circumstances more often than you would think.
