Guest kroexist Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 finally after about 3 years of fussing about i have my desk set done. only to discover i want a third variant too. Beautiful work my friend... it is simply impossible to not appreciate your fine work. I am looking for the same movement, so please PM if you could give me an idea where i could get one from
JimmyGee Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 The table display is awesome. Is it a secret, or can anyone buy the "flottiglia" plate and the "2 man torpedo"? Would dearly love to know where to buy them.
kent2 Posted April 9, 2011 Author Report Posted April 9, 2011 the plate is from the net from a badge seller in italy. about 15 euros i recall. and the pig is an italian model kit i built for another 15 euros
