Bench Time Podcast #95: Jeff Grove of Carolina Craftsman Kits & The Craftsman Courtyard

https://hoscalecustoms.com/

We were so excited to get Jeff Grove of Carolina Craftsman Kits back on the show to talk about a bunch of topics this week!

We started the conversation out about the new CCK limited kit, Shawyers Store which has an awesome mansard roof and cupola. The kit also features a unique shape in which Jeff explains in detail how he went about designing. This is an awesome looking limited run and from our experience with all of the CCK kits we’ve done, this one is sure to be a great build! The kit will be available soon so keep checking back for more details on it! Check out his new kit here: Shawyer’s Store HO Scale Kit

Then we dive into the current state of his layout! Jeff has been working away and progressing well on his personal layout which was documented on the recent video by Joey Ricard from Trackside Scenery (future guest… hint hint) which you can watch here: https://youtu.be/jHtOnrkymlY 

Finally, we talk about the upcoming Craftsman Courtyard at the upcoming Great Scale Model Train Show in Timonium, MD. There are going to be a TON of great vendors there, many of who have been guests on our podcast, and we’re excited to be set up there to build some models and to run some clinics for the attendees! This show is going to be a BLAST and we’re really looking forward to it!
