The New Korber Models

This is really good and welcome news.  I still haven't purchased me first building from them but after your comments, plus talking to Rich at York, I feel very confident about acquiring some of their buildings.

Korber kits need some help.

Looks like they got it

 

Thank you for the review of these improvements.

Ben, thanks for the update.  I had two older Korber kits that were great building styles, but the assembly was hit or miss dependent upon how much tweaking and reinforcing was required to obtain a good fit of the pieces and as you alluded, the older instruction sets were often vague.

 

In my haste at the last York meet I forgot to stop by Rich's booth.  I definitely plan to make a stop at his booth this upcoming April.

I purchased the roof top water tank at York and was very impressed!  I'll be getting some more kits in April.

I thought the older Korber kits were about halway between a good kit and might-as-well-scratchbuild-it-anyway, so this improvement sounds good.  I'll have to look to see if what they have fits my layout needs but they certainly sound good.

The 304 Roundhouse kit, the Christmas present to myself, and the two extra stalls that I ordered came in this week. I only skimmed through the instructions, didn’t see any problems. As mentioned the packaging of the kit was excellent. Looking forward to starting the kit and my layout.

Can not agree more on the new quality and amazing customer service and follow through. Rich went out of his way to meet me yesterday in the parking lot of a local bookstore so a new 304 could be undebuildingbuilding

I certainly agree. We received three of the apartment building flats and they are not only excellent but great suggestions in the directions. 

Hi Guys,

 

I purchased a few water tower kits from Rich at York. The instructions were so well done and the kits were very easy to assemble. I'm figuring out a spot on my layout to get a few of the background apartment buildings. Here's a few photo's of the water towers I built.

Had a problem on my Yahoo account   I will check in my SPAM filter to see if I got anything

Thanks for the kind words. We are trying to make improvements as we go along. Still plenty to do and of course not perfect but trying to offer a good product for the hobby.
