« on: November 30, 2007, 08:02:33 pm »

Anyone know is there another manufacturer of fittings for Sheffield and sister ships? Europe or the US wouldnt be a problem.

What scale is the sheffield?
if it is 1/72 scale there was a company in grantham called
little models that made some stuff. When I spoke to him in
march he was re doing all his moulds.
The best bet is sirmar for your stuff at present

If you dont mind searching
a couple of companies come to mind that may sell the stuff
Precision Control (check with fleetscale the supply fittings for him)
Little models (mentioned before)
APS models in Australia (mostly 72 but you never know)
Fleetscale (don't know for sure they may sell sirmar's)

Can't think of any more
as I said sirmar would of been the best bet for your stuff
but these others may provide you with whatg you want

Dear All,

Just taking opportunity of the hols. to browse everything and noticed this Topic. John Haynes has a vg. selection, and Deans have the other things - 8 barrel Pom Pom's for example and the Carley Floats.

Try Midway Models in Leicester as I seem to recall them advertising modern RN gear in an odd scale in MM, I definitely remember a Modelled Zodiac rubber boat and some weapons in an advert. But this is old info (from mid 90s) so I might be sending you on a bum steer?

Hi there, if it is the T42 version, there is only Sirmar to be Honest, John Haynes does a few bits too, but at 1/96th scale, Sirmar is the place to go considering we do about half a dozen of em anyway?????????
