CAFmodel La Bellle

[CAFmodel]

Hello everyone, I'm really sorry that I disappeared for a long time. I have been dealing with some personal matters and have finally stabilized. La Belle is a piece I made a long time ago and I have always wanted to start over and add some details. I just have some free time these days so I can complete this plan.

Hallo Tom. This is excellent news So, would be able to call this an updated or improved version?

 

[CAFmodel]

Yes, this is a small work, I will finish it quickly, it is a warm-up

Hi Tom

Nice to see you. I was wondering if you have received my PM, it was time back.

I like this model very much !!.

My next model after the Endurance will be your Granado Cross Section. I was going to build it when I got the request to build the Endurance by one of my sons.

If it happens that you get to Florida, let me know. Please, send me a PM when you have time.

Best !!!

I added some details to the compartments which can be optionally crafted

This time I tried a different fabrication method and started cutting the ribs once the inner hull was installed.

As long as CAF continues to pursue a support strategy that is completely customer-unfriendly and passes on the costs of its failing quality control to the customer, the only sensible course of action imo is to avoid shopping with CAF.

Based on my personal experience I disagree with you. I explained why on your linked posted thread.

Thank you very much for being the first customer to comment negatively on me and the first customer to apply for compensation for more than the price paid. I explain again, to apply for a refund, please help me destroy the product and take photos for me, and I will refund the amount you paid to you account.(Includes shipping fee you pay） But I can't afford the amount you pay to other companies。please understand。

And I say again, if you send a bad manufactured product send replacement! You are not willing to do that you want me not even destroy the badly manufactured kits, no, you want me to have a loss of 20.- EUR for tax and handling when YOU did no quality control. Sorry, that is BAD customer support and behavior. Take your responsibility Tom!

I seem to be the first customer you are not willing to send replacement for badly manufactured parts though ;-)

I think Dirk was asking at the first place a full replacement of the kit

I just built the Granado from CAF. There were two minor defects, and they were replaced without any fuss and at an impressive speed. CAF, along with Vanguard Models, probably has the best customer service. Based on my experience, I can absolutely recommend buying model ships from CAF.
