Review 136

Posted by John Clutterbuck on

Issue 136 has gone to the printers for distribution at the end of the month. This issue has a large focus on construction with a range of articles describing various  approaches ranging from the latest digital production techniques, through more traditional techniques, and a large scale approach that mirrors the prototype construction techniques of old. We also have prototype features with scale drawings, plus the usual jottings, product and book reviews and readers' letters.
