I'm looking for an 1/35 orange rotating light.  You know, the sort they have on top of modern tanks.  I'm sure I've seen an aftermarket one somewhere but can't remember where.  Anybody seen one while surfing the web?

Thank you, that is exactly what I'm looking for and why I couldn't find it doing a google search of my own (which I've tried half a dozen times, each with different terms)!  I searched for "1/35 rotating amber light" or similar and they call it a "flashing beacon"!   :banghead:

Another odd request.  Anybody know where I can find 1/32 or 1/35 folding deck chairs of the type seen often in pictures of RAF fighter dispersals in the Battle of Britain?  The only ones I've found are long OOP Phoenix 54mm Victorian era ones.   :banghead:

I saw a friend make, many years ago when I worked at BAe in Kingston, deck chairs, ladders, tressles n all sorts for a 1/32 scene out of trimmed wooden stirrers and painted masking tape...thr cream type with a texture to it.....they looked awesome......in that scale it should be ok......imagine a 1/72 scene.........don't help really, I know but something to think about.......

Well I can find them in 1/72 but not 1/32/35  :banghead:

Really surprised this lot don't stock them, but there may be some stuff here of interest

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

There is quite a lot there of interest, including in their "future releases" some 1/32 scale deck chairs.  I've emailed them to see if they are available.  We shall see.  I have plans.   :thumbsup:

They have replied to my email.  The Victorian Deck Chairs are due for release in November.  Looks like I'll have to wait.  Might have a go at making my own in the meantime.
