Reed models dl-44 grill

[JetSetWilly]

I’m searching for the U.K. model shop that sells the DL-44 grill cylinders but can no longer find them, are they still selling?
May be my spelling? Reed, Reede, Reade Models?

Anyone have a link? Thanks

edit, found the correct name but it’s no longer active, have they gone?

www.reademodels.com

Just spoke with them and they are no longer in business. Don’t know if this was old news.

It's news to me, thanks for sharing!

From what I'm told, the guy's no longer with us.

I"ll have to go dig through some boxes but I may have an extra set of these that I got from him a year or so ago before they quit making them.

You can still get the radial cylinders from Todd's Costumes and Field Marshall.

I got some from Todd's, but they're not quite as smooth and glossy as the originals I bought when the original maker's son first began to sell new ones. I'm not sure if a new mold was made or what. The little imperfection at one side of one of the seams looks a little different as well.

I must've bought fifteen sets from Reade Models back when he reintroduced them. Now I wish I'd bought thirty!
