This will be my challenge build, a new kit just released by Jeff of the John Shea Co.. The prototype for this kit was in the center of Methuen Mass. and I found photos on the web taken a few years back and gave them to Jeff at the EXPO. Here's the photos off the web..

I won't get to deep into starting this till Jimmy's kit is done, but I have a few ideas of modifying this kit so I might play around with it while tonight.

Dan,

Looks like another winner by Jeff. I'll be following along.

I'm going to sit behind Greg and follow along on this build Dan.  I'll try to keep him in line but I have to warn you, it's not easy.  ::)

I will be following along and doing by best to keep Bob and Greg in-line. It looks like a great kit. I can't believe it took Jeff so long to get this kit out if he's had the pictures since the EXPO.  He must be slowing down in his old age.

John, I think I had it 2 weeks after the EXPO, definitely before Thanksgiving. I was going to build it right away until Jimmy started welling up and crying at Marlborough Show about some dying kids wish to see a build thread on the Franklin Electric building so Jimmy could use it for the kit directions... True story.. Not really..
