Here are the instruction sheets for the Ferguson. They are scans of a photocopy so are a bit fuzzy. Click on the thumbnails to go to the full size versions. Again, thanks to Gary Wenko and Pat Lewarne. Interesting to note, the recommended adhesive was Acetone.

I'll be at the show from Friday lunchtime so should be able to help a little with the setup but will be working for most of the show on the IPMS table.

I was wondering if we should also display the Arthur Ward books on our table opened at appropriate places for punters to look at but not touch?
I have the Boys book of Airfix, Celebrating 50 years of Airfix and Classic Kits.

If we display two at any one time it will give feanor a chance to catch up on his reading

I'll be there from sometime on Friday (not sure when yet), all the way through until Sunday evening.  My other half is coming too, so I'll man the stand when I can but I may have to wander off to the shops with her occasionally!

I'd be a bit wary on two counts, the books getting nicked, and secondly heavy books around models   . It also depends how much space we have which will probably be at a premium. Worth thinking about though.

The space is twice as big as we normally have.  We can mount them so they won't move and are also out of the publics reach.  Also it will add a bit of vertical height to the display which some of us have been discussing since the display at Cosford.

I'm aiming to come up on Friday evening - I'll be there early on Saturday morning and will then head off on Sunday afternoon - I'm happy to be behind the display whenever needed.

Regarding the display - I remember there was suggestion of getting a banner printed. Excuse my ignorance if we already have one but it'd be good to have one to display across the front of the table.

If all goes to plan I am hoping to arrive Friday morning and leave on Monday although I still have a little bit of sorting out to do.

I will be happy to do a stint at the table on both days (between visits around the various displays and traders)

Cheers

I'm getting some prices and sizes from a company I know that does poster printing. I'll do an update when I have them.

Hi Tom!  My attendance has been a bit patchy of late, as I've been moving house - still don't have an internet connection, so I'm having to pop in as and when I can at work!
