| Snipped from a larger image in RMC Jul '89 |
The July 1989 RMC / Dremel Kitbashing Award was won by Thomas W. Rimer for his Kitbashing a multi-story factory project, which made use of 5 Machine Shop kits to build a 3 storey factory.
One thing you'll notice about this building is that the tell-tale 2-up, 2-down jog in the sidewall window arrangement is absent. Galen noted that it's that arrangement that makes the Machine Shop noticeable in a scene, and he's right. I have to admit that the only reason I didn't skip over this model was that the first sentence of the article called out the AHM Machine Shop. A skillful arrangement of wall panels has eliminated the jog.
It looks like the long Machine Shop only used 4 kits, so this factory with its 5 appears to be the current winner in the most kits used category.
And one more thing, this kitbash also makes use of balsa, so there's Moorian DNA all throughout this model :-)
