I have posted on my blog some photos of the newest project from Turtle models. I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek. As you know Turtle only makes one of each model - and they take a VERY long time to build. The last project took almost 3 years. But they are fascinating to see up close - enjoy these photos! (if you are confused, you can get to my blog at the bottom of the main page at DHS Diecast Home PageEnjoy! Chuck

Turtle is a model builder from way back. He builds in brass and only one at a time. The name of the company says something about the speed at which the models are built.
For example, he told me the tool boxes on this truck took over 9 hours to complete. The models are masterpieces of course but also fascinating to see.
If you go back into my blog, I posted many of Turtle's models over the years. Great stuff.
