Wow

great small stuff. I am interested in your views on the ACE and the IBG kits - would love to find a supplier to bring these to South Africa, but there are so few Braille-scalers here it is not likely to be financially viable!

Thanks Tim, its been a while since I built them so, IIRC the Ace plastic is a bit soapy and I think I had to add the glazing. Both those, and the IBG kits build OK. Maybe you can order them from Hannants ;-)
