Those of you who use the 4D Model Shop might be interested to know that they are now contactable on Skype.
This is very useful as they have over 6500 items in stock in the way of modelling materials.
If you have any doubt over which item you require they can deal with you face to face and also show you the item.
To use this service all you need to do is download Skype off the internet [ free ], buy a cheap web cam [W H Smiths £8 ], and a cheap microphone.
You then contact them on modelshop4d and they will then have you on their system.
Web cam and mike is normally standard on new laptops.
4D are an excellent supplier and their service is fast.
I ordered Monday morning and received the goods Tuesday morning.
