1/72 scale Shuttle Launch Tower

I would not hold my breath for anything like that. There was a fellow working on some of those kinds of things but it would probably not materialize for several years, if at all.

You could get the Revell 1/144th shuttle launch tower and scale it up.

I've found it. Someone at work turned me on to the website.
John - you're right. It looks like it may be a good while until this gets into production. For any one who wants a launch tower from Mercury to Shuttle and more see this web site.

yeah...Ross is one of my space modeling buddies. He is supposed to be coming out with a 1/144th LUT for our Saturn V's but I think life has gotten in the way as it often does.

He's a good guy so we will see it eventually.

Part No. 20 (Inside wheel), Part No. 19 (Outside Wheel)
I don't have the part numbers for the gears (They are off the trees)

Chris, if you need them, I could mail them out to you. These are from my "extras" storage rack.

Sorry. forgot to tell you that the re-issued kit (Monogram) is kit no. 5900.

Hey NASAFan,

Thanks for the help! That ought to be all the information I need. If I need anything else I'll be sure to post it here.

Thanks again,

I see you've been looking for a 1/72 FSS tower.

I've been building a launch complex in 1/72 take a look at it

www.infini-t.com/shuttle

infimurf,
in a big way. What a project and it looks great. How long have you been building it and to you have an eta on completion?

thanks for the welcome. I hate to say how long i have been building it. I started it
right after the challenger explosion (yes challenger). worked on it on and off for a year or so.....then got married and put it down for 10 years.

finally decied to dust it off and get it finished. I think i'll have it done by the end of the year. Its so hard finding time to work on things. And sometimes i do something...then dont like it and start over again. You know how it goes.

infimurf....what a fantastic build you have there!
You must have alot of patience to tackle something like that...

Sorry to bump an old topic but I am hoping someone here can help me out. I recently acquired the 1/72 Monogram space shuttle with tank & boosters kit. I was lucky enough to get the kit at a great price and it is complete....except for the instructions. Is there someone here who can help me out? I'll gladly pay for a scan or photocopy of the instructions. Please e-mail if you can help.

Thanks in Advance!,
