Wow, the jail is nice! When is the website going live? How much is the jail going to be?

These look nice, I look forward to seeing them released. We really are spoilt for choice with the laser cut old west buildings on the market at the moment.

We decided against having our own website for the buildings. It would be nice but also expensive. We are selling buildings in our etsy store "TriCity Laser Inc." on ETSY.COM and some on ebay.

Nice stuff- I have never seen that stone-work effect done before.

I will slip over and check out the store you guys setup...I have been looking for it and telling people your stuff is slowly getting out there. Also, as I said before if you want to promote the stuff on my site I am happy to and if you want to donate something to give away just shoot me a PM....I am having the urge to do a contest and Wild West is one of the things on my plate of late.

Those are some pretty sweet designs. I agree, the jail is something pretty special!

I like those buildings. Look forward to seeing more. I would even like to pick up some myself.

Very nice buildings, but I don't see anything listed on Ebay.

They look very nice - but do we really need more old west buildings!

So many genres are crying out for some lazer cut love, why do we keep getting more old west (even if it is very nice old west)? I am particularly surpised given the period does not seem to have much of a popular following at the moment.

Am I missing an old west renaissance?

I would second that. We could do with more choice in Victorian-20th century. That has a much wider appeal, being good for VSF, Pulp, Strange Aeons, VBCW, WW2, Sixties Spies, Modern Warfare, superheroes, Zombie, post apoc, and so much more! Surely there has got to be more people playing all those different games than there are playing old west?

In the future we plan on doing other eras besides old west. Old west was our first choice because the architecture back then was fairly simple and easy to replicate on a laser.  Also I have several friends that play old west.  Some of the more popular eras are easier done with traditional resin cast.  Some stuff is hard to do with a laser and make it look good.  We are always looking for a nitch in the market so if another era looks promising then you better beleive we will do some buildings for it.

Any chance of 15mm buildings

Looks great! Maybe you can create a blog which is free and can also be easily modified to a webshop although not with a shopping cart but with an contact email adress.

Just an idea from a regular blogger  ;)

There is a chance for 15mm depending on the demand. I could shrink these buildings to 15mm if someone wanted that.

Looks great and I may be tempted!

The signs are very cool; any plans for a pack/sheet of signs only?

Clint,

Great to hear that you have non-wild west plans, particularly given the quality of your what you have shown already. I'll keep an eye out.
Title: Re: New Laser Cut Buildings from TriCity Laser.
Post by: Clint Eastwood on September 20, 2012, 05:19:43 PM
Yes we will have a pack of signs for people who scratch build but like our signs. I'll go put that on etsy right now.

Okay, just tried to order these and Esty.Com does not deliver to the UK. Will these be going on Ebay? And if so, can you link to your Ebay store?

Thanks in advance.

Anyone who wants to order and can't do it on ETSY.com because of international shipping can PM me and I will give you details on buying directly through paypal.  In the mean time I will try to get international shipping set up on ETSY.  Sorry for any inconvienence.

Hey Clint;
Nice looking buildings. I wish these were available before I built or purchased all of mine several years ago.

I do have a question....have you thought about making signs available for sale? I would love to get my hands on some signs for my buildings as none of my buildings have any at the moment, and I haven't figured out how to do it with decent looking lettering. Yours look great!! Just a thought. If you do make them available please PM me, as I would really like to get some.
Regards,
Hitman

Check out the etsy site. The signs are available and they are great, mine arrived last week along with the gallows.

I see they are now available through Knuckleduster in the US and Caliver in the UK.

Yep, and the nice touch is that the buildings mostly include interiors - something none of the other laser cut guys are doing heavily (though Sarissa has a handful now).

I've been slowly painting up some of my old Tri-City Laser buildings...I will say I'd prefer MDF simply from the painting standpoint, but the buildings are excellent.  I also got most of mine free, so I can't complain!

Re: Caliver in the UK

As I couldn't find it on their website, I emailed Caliver to ask if they really do sell the Tri-City Laser stuff and they said that they do not stock it, but they can get it. If you want to order from them you have to email with what you want (it's not listed on the website). They said that with VAT, customs, etc. the price is approximately $1 = £1. That avoids UK customs slapping you with additional charges when you order from the US yourself. Thought other people might like to know :-)
