Sure hope that 1st Gear can build this model. They really do a great job for the price.

It was surprising to me that we had strong responses from all of the different publications, and we had many people call the office and say they saw our ad and didn't previously know anything about the Club. A number of new members joined, even though they weren't buying a model. I think the further we can expand our presence to new interested parties, the better.

I attended an antique machinery show recently and brought along a half dozen of my weathered models to showcase (a few 2-tons, Twenties, Twenty Twos). I had my iPad and was showing some people the ACMOC production posts of my earlier Twenty and Twenty Two models which introduced them to 1) the ACMOC forum and 2) to 3D printing. I was surprised how many people said they didn't know about the ACMOC (let alone 3D printing). Some were even Cat owners, albeit these were older gentlemen that expressed their disinterest in computers. However, many were very excited to learn about the organization and what it represents.

I'm sure introducing a new model to the fleet is no simple task and I have absolute appreciation for the organization's efforts. Personally, I'm excited to get my hands on a D4 and add a little age to it. :madgrin: :dance:
