May be of interest to some of the folks here. A friend who does military/war games miniatures shared a couple of their catalogs with me. Figured some of the stuff they carry would be useful to the modelers here.

What kind of modeling does your dad do?

Well, he is into HO-scale model railroading, mainly the iron ore trains of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. He had started a layout, but never finished it, needed the space, but he is going to start again soon, so he says, he has all kinds of engines, ore cars, and ore carrier, ore dock, and he said he will base it mostly on the Lake Superior and Ishpeming Railroad in and around Marquette, where he was born and spent his summers growing up. He gets the MircoMark catalog and has bought items for himself and for me (like CHRISTmas, birthday), all kinds of neat items in the catalog for all kinds of model builders and those into wood working, and metal, too.
