    Hello Everyone,
    Have you ever wanted to build the large Gilbert Erector Hall of Science revolving store display sign/tower? Restore an original? Well you are one step closer…I finished the artwork for the two different lite-up panels and it is now available in the Member’s Downloads area of ACGHS. If you build a replica, you will need two of each panel and instructions for printing are also in paragraphs preceding the ZIP file. While you are in the download section, check out all the items available for download if you have not visited in some time. You just might find something you have been looking for.

    Thank you to Bruce Hansen and Randy Ramsey/Toledo Toymasters for providing information and pictures to facilitate producing the artwork and to those at ACGHS for giving these projects a landing spot for distribution. Though I initially did not intend to undertake screen printing, if there is enough interest, it might make it feasible for someone to do this. Drop me a note if interested in plastic replicas or if you want the task. I will work with you to make changes to artwork if needed but from past experience these files can easily be used to make positives or negatives for masks depending on process.

    When I get to the point of building my replica, I will try to document steps, parts list, and other details for a future posting.

    Best regards from Texas…We are getting a little RAIN today in College Station…Yeah!!!

    Happy Building,
    Matt Potter
