Title: Fotocut contact details.
Post by: Pavlos on November 27, 2014, 10:31:56 PM

If anyone knows if Mr. Hultberg of Fotocut is still in business and has any source of contact details with him (email or address) please PM me. I have tried to contact him through an email address found on a Fotocut brochure dated '02 with no luck.
Thanking you in advance

Pavlos, I know he used to be very active over on the WWI Modeling List, you might try there to see if anyone has been in touch with him recently:

All, thank you so much for the promt responses.
This yahoo email address is the one I've used, though no answer yet.

 Anyway, what I am looking for is a "Nut and Bolt" set in 48th scale (#106) obtained from Copper State ages ago. Unfortunatelly I cannot find any stock of it (already tried the Copper State Models and even Aeroclub, who both I thank for their kind responses).
Taking a look at an old Fotocut brochure I found out that Fred had something similar on production.
 
 Ok someone may say, why don't you take a Punch 'n Die set. Well, I cannot find any tool that can give me a hex shaped nut with an ext dia of 0.4mm, more over this type of PhotoEtched set had a vinyl carrier and not a fret requiring scissors cutting and filling.
Any ideas of where I can find or even custom made something like that?

Best wishes
P

Try looking for accessories for 1/43 scale model cars and 'O'scale model trains.

Try Ted's Modelling Marketplace. He does resin nuts, either with or without washers, or bolts, in various sizes. You may have to wait a little while if he's out of stock as they seem to be pretty popular!
