nice, built a homemade hand crank version about 5 years ago and mass produced my fir trees. If I didn't already have all the fir trees I need I would definitely buy one!
Sure would've been nice to go directly to your site that you described to find yhat machine!!!! Everything I tried a blind links!!! Correct the problem and your sales might increase! Now I'm gonna make my own!
Hi Wontonwabledoo, No, the Black Diamond Railroad is owned by Rich Batista. Rich's layout was one of a handful of well done layouts that was built in the early years of MTH ScaleTrax. My name is Dave Hikel. I'm the owner of Hikel O Gauge Layouts & Trains and a co-founder of H&J Trains. My H&J co-founder, Charles Jackson, and I developed the Super Tree Machine for the production trees for Hikel O Gauge layouts. The layout you see in the video is also being built with ScaleTrax.
Hi unifax5, We have been transitioning H&J Trains into an all wholesale business. You can find many of our products in your local hobby shop, but few stores carry the tree machine right now. There will be a new web store at my own we site, which has been added to the video description above, within a week which will include the tree machine as well as refill materials. Sorry for any inconvenience. If you are interested in the machine please e-mail me directly at hikelogauge@gmail.com.
lol @ 9:15 _"... and the advantage to this is that it only sticks to areas that glue has been applied."_ Coincidently, every material known to man _also_ shares this property. X^P
The so called machine looks like something quite easy to make at home :-) ... I like what you are doing, though.....Making trees is that simple, even a woman can do it.... pretty smart..
Hi Erik S. H&J became an all wholesale business several years ago and the website was taken down. However, if you are interested in the tree machine, please feel free to contact he directly at hikelogauge@gmail.com.
Yes, we do still have the tree machine. H&J has become a strictly wholesale business, but anyone interested in purchasing the machine can contact me directly at hikelogauge@gmail.com. I need to update the video, obviously, and apologize for any inconvenience.
Hello Dave, I can't get to that site? Seems like I get to a snapshot of the site where it's just a description and the links aren't active. Maybe you could post a link??
