Some nice models on display. It looks like you have a decent meeting place too. Is that a vendor in one of the photos?

Rob we rent a room in a community center, really clean and bright. Yes we are fortunate enough to have a vendor that brings a van full of new kits to every meeting. Replica & Miniatures also sets up a vending booth in an adjacent room. Norman Veber the owner of R&M is the founder of our club. Harold Bradford the owner of Historic Racing Miniatures is an active member as well.

In the 1980s when I was working in Manufacturing Engineering at Mattel, I spent about $3 million of their money buying equipment to manufacture Hot Wheels cars in Malaysia. That equipment was bought from a vendor on Furnace Branch Rd. just a few numbers from Norm Veber's address at Replicas and Miniatures. I'm not sure if his address is still the same, but I have long wondered if he worked for that company making die casting equipment for zinc products like the deuce roadster frame and parts I bought from him way back when.
