Take a look at these people  A good friend in Chester, whom is an expert model maker as decided to build, not one, but two Orac models  If his first attempt many years ago was anything to go by, these will be absolutely brilliant and well worth the wait.
Kevin said he'd send some pictures has he's progressing, and he's kindly allowed me to display them on here for us to see how he's getting on. It's going to take a while obviously, but I'll update the photos as they arrive.
