I am proud to announce that I have the new Micro-Thin decks on the way. Yes, I finally found a supplier of really thin wood sheets. The sheets are white maple and are only 0.0095" thick (ok, 0.010)

I have a few new decks that will be only available in Micro-Thin, and will also make any of of the older decks as Micro-Thins (except the 1/72 U-boats... it just didn't look good)

The first new deck is for the Hasegawa 1/350 USS Gambier Bay (or any other Casablanca class CVE)

The next new deck is for the 1/200 USS Arizona from Trumpeter

Both of these are on pre-sale until Feb 14th.

Upcoming decks will include the Iowa, South Dakota & North Carolina classes in 1/350, as well as some IJN & RN subjects.

I.m looking to pick up your Scharnhorst shortly. Could you possibly pop out a 350 Fuso soon? Your prices are considerably cheaper than the manufacturers. I could also use a Repulse 350. Personally, I would skip the US BB's. The decks were stained and as I would paint them over.......
