Hi, Yes please, that was quick 😊
In my notifications I saw something about dpd carriers £14.45 plus vat ?
If that's right it's much less than I expected.
So if we can round the whole thing off to £100.00 we gotta deal!

Hi, thanks for the prompt reply. No thanks, don't need the cable as build my own distribution / fuse boards and will probably use a dual ESC / Rudder Mixer in her. Look forward to the shipping estimate.
Cheers Doug (AKA RNinMunich) 😉
PS Country code I gave is wrong! 49 for Germany not 48 🤔

Hi, please get an estimate for posting 'International Tracked and Signed' to Munich, Germany from Royal Mail. Or DHL or Parcel Force if possible. Don't include any batteries cos RM won't take 'em! if it doesn't double the cost I'm seriously interested.
best regards Doug Bell

Darrel thanks. I still have the emails. Will contact you.

That will be fine Darrell. Shall I get in touch thriugh your website? Rhanks, Dave

HI Chris

Yes that's not a problem we can have some Windows sent to you. £15 would be the cost for these. I hope this would be ok.

Darrell

Darrel, I would like a set of window frames & glazing for my 34" fiteboat. Hope you dont mind, but I will use the email you gave to kevGermany to get intouch. Kindest regards, Dave W.

HI KevGermany

If you would like to email me personally detailing exactly what your requirements are and I will put a Price together.

My email is (Email Removed - PM Only)

I do understand your scepticism but let me asure you I will get a resolution for you.

KitShack

hI kevgermany
I am dennisw I have nothing to do with making window frames.
I enquired about frames.but I do not sell any.
dennis sorry.

This is perhaps the wrong forum for this. But it was the end of June this year. I had an email exchange with Chris, not sure if that's you. Promises were made. Nothing received. I chased it, was told it was done, would be redone. Still nothing happened. I chased it in the middle of July, had another email exchange which led nowhere, so I gave up. Perhaps you can understand my scepticism.

HI Kevgermany

How long ago was it that you were promised one of our kits, KitShack has gone through a transitional period recently so your messages may of been missed. All our kits are cut on a CNC machine and are cut to order currently and would be happy to provide you with one. We have a website up and running now, you can check this out at www.kitshackmodels.com

KitShack Models

Sorry Kithack, but I'm sceptical. You promised me a kit with windows, fittings, transfers... but nothing materialised, despite me chasing you. Will it be third time lucky, or just more time wasting?

Kevgermany

If you still need them or inthe future we should be able to get a set sorted out for you on our CNC cut in 0.8mm ply.

PM me for more info

KitShack

Any change, or are these still unavailable?

at the minute I cant justify ordering another batch of window kits, I did the first couple of lots to help out other fireboat restorers on a non-profit basis.. seriously! I didnt make a penny and donated an amount to this forum for every window set sold.
then my laser cutter left where he worked and there hasn't been a direct replacement for him since.
it also meant I had to have a chunk of my own money sitting on the shelf on the off chance that somebody might order a set... not good!
then over-seas customers started ordering kits at the uk price and I was losing money all over the place with excessive postage costs etc.

is it worth the hassle.....? sorry guys... no!

so at the minute I have just got too much other stuff on

dbninja re:34"fireboat windows.
David, please could you tell me if,you are still producing the window/frame set,and if so, when do to expect them to be available. many thnks...............

HI David,
Thanks very much for the Fire boat windows they look grate.
Regards Chris.

please note I am away on my hols till May 9th so wont be posting out Fireboat window kits till my return, please feel free to order while I am away.

as for window kits for the 46" 1/12 scale boat, not yet! though I do have a 46" boat to restore so "maybe"

how about posting a photo of your boat with the window kit fitted on here.. lets see those windows

thanks
db

Anyone planning a window frame kit for the 46" Firefloat ? I would be very interested.

Thankyou for the windows, and your instructions for fitting hope my restoration project boat looks as good as yours,
Thanks Colin.

dennisw
many thanks for the windows they look brilliant,
perfect.

hints and tips for fitting the window kits...

remove the blue protective film from the clear window panes(pic 1).
lightly sand round the edge of each pane (both sides) with some 400grit wet and dry paper to remove any burrs left by the laser and to help adhesion to the cabin sides (pic 2).

the white window frames have a matt and a glossy side, make sure you keep them the correct way round with the matt side facing outwards, they can be painted grey if required using acrylic or enamel paint or just left white like the photo's. again lightly sand the gloss side to remove any burrs to aid adhesion.

I stuck the frames to the panes using that really thin brush on adhesive for plastic model kits (pic 3). I stuck the windows to the hull using 5 minute epoxy (pic 4)..
Important (hindsight bit) fully degrease the cabin sides and lightly rub down around the window aperture before glueing (I didnt and the several layers of "Mr sheen" I had used to clean the boat helped the windows to come unstuck!)

overheating... now I had run my boat with open windows with the water cooled speed 600 for ages no problem! first run with the windows fitted and everything was smelling really hot in there! so I have cut two cooling holes in the deck tween forward and aft cabin compartments to let a bit of air in/out which seems to have cured it for now

the four port holes.. I assembled as above then painted the back of the clear pane black and glued them on, so didnt bother drilling holes to look inside at erm... nowt!

hope this helps
happy fire boating
