Chrome Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 --Mmm, and keep making them supercheap!The Butcher will be a regular CAV, not one of JB's 1/60th scale models (at least not yet ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted September 26, 2002 Moderator Share Posted September 26, 2002 However, from the looks of those guns, it'd still be a really nifty thing to have anyway. Good job on the guns, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 I said it before JB and I will say it again. This thing is awesome, I cant wait for it to hit the shelves!! Any kind of hints you can give us on the Datacard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 So we should be expecting to see this one in the next JoR. Now that would be great. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted September 26, 2002 Moderator Share Posted September 26, 2002 That'd be my guess, since I can't find it in JoR1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 :p If you had found it in the JoR, I'd have been asking what page did I miss. :p It's just that this is the first new CAV I've heard that's "offical" for later intorduction.

Moderator Froggy the Great Posted September 26, 2002 Moderator Share Posted September 26, 2002 John Bear, what's the turnaround time you've noticed, from submitting a CAD to actually seeing it in metal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadinbrzezinski Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 I like it John, very much so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Lightning 2 Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Butcher 5 It's kind of got that Tyrant flavor to it. Gotta love stadium seating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bear Ross Posted September 27, 2002 Share Posted September 27, 2002 Frosch, Total turnaround time varies... I can knock out a CAV digital file in 1 week of spare-time prototyping, or less. Full-time, I can knock one out in a couple days. From there, it's a matter of getting approval, getting the thing prototyped, lost-waxed into silver, clean-up of the silver, production masters, and production molds. In a beautifully perfect world, you could make an N-scale CAV in about a month or two, from electrons on a screen to painted pewter with a die sitting next to it. A lot of things often get in the way, though, from 3D printer delays to lost-waxing delays to digital sculpting delays (uh...ignore that last one). Inevitably, some one along the line drops the ball or shuffles their feet, creating delays. Best, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
