Here we are. Finally I have located and attended the Merch & Memo section of the board!

Hello everyone, my name is Gordon and I'll make this my official hello to the board, though I've been posting for a little while. :salute:

I am a prop builder by trade. I made Kevin Smith's Batman-style grappler gun seen in "Mall Rats" and many other props for movies, TV and print. I am also a Classic galactica NUT. My wife gets a little frustrated sometimes because I'm so into it. :erk:

Anyway, I have been making replicas of some of the more obscure Galactica props available as resin castings. I've been operating mostly through the RPF and the ASAP boards, but it seems THIS is my ultimate venue. :muffit:

I have been interviewed on Cylon Alliance, so you can see that at tis URL: http://cylon.org/bsg/bsg-smuder-01.html :cylon:

Here is my list of currently available castings. You will note that postage is included with most of the items. That's because this is my hobby and I basically EAT the postage because i want others to have this stuff too. So even if I combine the shiping in one package, the price is the price is the price. But I try VERY hard to keep those prices reasonable...like I said, this is my hobby. If you are ordering outside the US, we'll have to make special arrangements for postage AND insurance. I won't ship your stuff outside the US without insurance. :halo:

I accept PayPal, money orders and personal checks (with time to clear the bank). My paypal id is spcglider@aol.com.

I have obtained an original copy of the commercially available scarab box they used on the show and have built a clean copy for molding. I'll let you all know when it's ready for reproduction. ;)

Take care, be well.

Death to the cylons. :salute:

Once again, I'll have to rely upon the kindness of fellow fleet members to post images.

I can send them out to whomever will "do the dirty deed"!

Well then, I've just uploaded a bunch of pics to the gallery...though it was a bit confusing. i put them in "Pysical models" because that's what they are. Couldn't figure out how to start a new folder as it's absolutely obscure as to how one uploads in the first place. There's no obvious and convenient tool palette to start from when you get to the Gallery page!

Anyway, if they're in the wrong place, I'll be happy to move them or what-have-you.

When I posted them, it said they'd be up "when they were approved". I don't know who is the approve-r, but I'm sure they'll be viewable soon.

Let's hope so. Just post them here on the Fleets. We all could really enjoy seeing them, and they'd be home posted here. :salute:

They're viewable now, and approved :D

Gordon, new folders aren't doable by the general membership. As for uploads, it's by category. As you saw, when you click on the category of Physical models, the upload button was there.
