It would run you around a 150.00 for a round trip, no frills, plane ticket ( I have a friend heading to FL in a week or so ) , now whether that is worth it to you is something else again..cheaper than driving though.  :)

Cool. We're almost right to on the border of both states..a it northeast..almost in VA.  For example if they were thinking of going to Gatlinburg, TN we're about 2 hours from there.

Got some feathers done on the 2nd Velociraptor today and work done on the tail of the Rex..it's was a bit cold..I think it was 8 degrees just now when I walked up from the shop. lol

I'm sure it will..every day is coupon day ! lol

Thanks, we worked more today, almost all his steel musculature is done now...just the thighs, pubic area, and some tweaking left on that aspect.  We've used around 130' of 12.5 gauge steel fencing so far for that aspect alone.

We've been calling him Stan since he's mostly based on the STAN T-Rex reconstruction.

Coming along very nicely! I reckon you could produce models for theme parks and museums if you ever wanted to expand your business. Have you ever considered that?

It is..I keep second guessing every detail..lol are the arms right, head in the correct position..make me want to yell sometimes..heh  Glad you like him so far. :)

I have. I can get fiberglass versions and customize them should anyone ever want one ( or more ).  These we build with this method take a long while to produce..they would need to be pretty patient for us..  ^-^ I think I started the head on this Rex back in July/August last year.

Thank you !

Right now I'm agonizing over whether the head is scaled right for Stan...it's probably just paranoia..you know how father's get before their child is " born "..lol
