Occasionally modelers will tell me that they don't like to buy plaster kits because they have received poorly manufactured and packed kits from other manufactures that have broken parts. Let me explain the steps we have taken from day one to avoid this.

For starters, all of the large pieces have been impregnated with strips of drywall filament tape. I push it right into the wet plaster when I pour it into the mold. When set this reinforces the parts just like re-bar



Next the parts get packed onto two sheets of sturdy cardboard & protected with bubble wrap.



Next I tightly wrap the parts with shrink wrap so they aren't rattling around.



The parts are tightly wedged into the box with newsprint, again, so they are not bouncing around.



Finally the box is tightly shrink wrapped.



When you get the kit the parts & perfect & you build it up to look like this;



And if by some incredible chance you end up with a broken part please just drop me an email & I'll be glad to send you a replacement part at no charge. Questions?

Special offer this week. Buy any two of our kits & I'll throw in 2 extra bags of our cast rubble & bricks (a $25 value).

Cheers!
