new FDS 1/100 scale models

[flightsimmer2012]

came across 2 new models from FDS on www.minimodel.cz - Minimodel.cz
you have to navigate to find the links, but to make it easier here it is
1:100 Minimodel forum • Zobrazit téma - Váno?ní modely 2014 od FDS
the 1st link is for a wind tower trailer
the 2nd link is for an American LaFrance Eagle TDA

THANKS for this one. It will go well with the Seagrave TDA
I already started work on.
I found the pic of this ALF Eagle on the front page,
but no link to the model itself

I don't know how to get around the forum to find models.
I can find them fine from the other pages, even their Archives.
Is there some icon/symbol to look for in the forum index to know models
are available in certain threads???

Sadly, Untill google Leaves the Business, I will NEVER use any of their products again!!!!
I Still Can not get into my Old Stand Alone Youtube account thanks to their demanding
I use a g account Only!I don't even know what account they Merged it with before I
dumped all gmail/g-browsers!!!
So Making a FAKE gmail account in my Original YouTube ID will Not let me back into
the YouTube account!!
(And surprisingly, Yes, All the clips I posted are still Up)

Max Cloud and even Firefox (?SPAMfox now?) offer translations,
But Mechanical translations are Hit-&-Miss at best!
I learned that with Babel-Fish!! (Long gone now)

And, I actually found the Picture of the ALF TAD ladder on the 2014 Calender!!
Happy to have the model now!!
and I wonder if they are closer to 1/87 than 1/100
I tested print pages against Athearn, Lee Tow/Alloy Forms I similar HO
scale semi truck kits and find them Too close to be that much (1/100) smaller!!
Tires were same diameter of some of the larger ones in Leetown/Alloy Forms
and Athearn kits!!

Sorry for double post here

Have I said I HATE wireless internet!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thought I said I got the 2 models in the first post,
but can see I didn't
so made it look like I needed help there
I just need it on what too look for in the forums there to know a
specific thread has downloadable models in it

[flightsimmer2012]

I think to make it H.O scale it should be enlarged to 115% I know I tried the Freightliners, and a few trailers with a H.O Scale athearn tractor trailer and 15% enlargement maybe closer to 20

Ok try to post this again (Have I said I HATE wireless Internet!!!!!)

To my eye, at least some of Minimodel's kits look very close to HO scale already.
I had the Seagrave TDA (Tractor-Drawn Aerial) printed at Full versus 'Fit Page'
and thew tire diameter matches the Atheran Truck cabs I have.
(As well as the larger of the 2 Leetown/Alloy Forms kit tires)
So, It must be closer to 1/87 than 1/100
I know a City Fire Ladder would Not have tires 15-20% Larger than most common Semi truck tires. (At least an Older piece like the Seagrave)

Still They will look acceptible on an HO scale layout, ot next to many
available HO Truck & Fire apparatus kits and Ready to roll Rigs.

Also, I would need either a Larger printer, a way to separate parts
and increase the number of pages in the kit, or a place that can print
at the larger size On CARD while not costing a Fortune!!!
(I would want at least 2 copies in case of mistakes right?)

I think I got 4 copies of the Seagrave!!
Lynnhaven Baptist Church is a Nice neighbor!!!!
And they have a Lazer color printer (Photo Quality on that Seagrave!!)
