in 1987
I've just today bought a copy of Military Modelling Oct 1987 for an article on the ACW, and saw this in the classified section.
It raised a smile, because I was recruited internally to the mould room during this drive. I was a happy Mail order Troll who was shuffled into the mould room.
I was taught how to make moulds by the mentioned Andrew Howes, but actually my full time role was Mould Room assistant, helping with the running of it.
Not important, just a little bit of history that caught my eye.
