Thank you all for the kind words.
Some background... I have a CNC milling machine that I built myself a couple of years ago. I build custom homes for a living and do CNC work for fun, and to keep sharp.
The Red Caboose GP9 is actually my first O scale anything! LOL I wanted to try O scale and started asking questions about loco kits on another group. I was pointed toward the Red Caboose kit and a list of common upgrades. Everything was available except the brass frame. It was my understanding that the stock frame suffered from the lack of weight and the tendency to sag in the middle over time if weight was added.
Once I had my kit in hand it was time to mill out a frame for myself that included some of the underside detail that the brass frame did not have. While asking questions and posting pictures on another group several people started to ask if I was going to make them available so I decided to do a limited run, those frames will be available in a few weeks.
I have been taking pre-orders with the understanding that the first run will be ready in a approx. 4 weeks depending on the holiday delays.
If anyone is interested please email me off list and I will send you details.
