Dealer Alan Hamer: Metal Work

An IGMA Fellow, Alan Hamer's 1:12 scale metal work is done using iron, copper or brass.--sometimes silver. All work is fabricated, and much of it is one-of-a-kind. However, to justify the design and set-up of some popular projects, he will make a run of eight or ten. On Monday, Oct. 12, he is offering a Good Sam Academy Class in "Copper & Metal Work." Email: scalemetal@msn.com. Web: http://www.alanhamerminiatures.com.
