mike yates Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Hi, Not sure if this of any help but Balsa Cabin are offering 3 Pete Tindall kits on there Web site? Would the accessory pack included in the kit be of any help? I think P. Tindall retired some time ago. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Jones Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 It'll be a shame if he has gone, I use his stuff and it's fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 The site is not exactly "dead", it exists, but just has almost no content! So it's possible they're suffering technical problems with the site, or perhaps are upgrading it but didn't think to display a message on the site whilst they do so. There's a (mobile) phone number on the site - you could try ringing it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Jones Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 The wayback machine shows Petetindal.Co.uk last captured on the 18th December last year so it looks like it's been gone for a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Privett Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I've just been looking on the wayback machine. I don't think there's any significance in the last capture being in December last year. On there my club website has only been captured once this year (March) and my personal website was also last captured on 18 Dec. 2014 - and that is certainly still running - even if it is appalling-dated now!

Matt Jones Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I got some in one of their kits, they're not Tindal quality and I elected not to use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuban8 Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Don't forget that the Pete Tindal name is a trading title of the business that Pete himself sold some years ago. As has been said, Pete is retired from the business side of modelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
