I sometimes wonder if we appreciate GEM advertisers as much as
we should. Perhaps we too often classify them as business people,
but I have found them to be much more than that. I feel that they
are deeply dedicated to our hobby and mutual interest. Many of us
can thank them for parts needed to complete a project or for the
information they so graciously give.
I, for one, wish to thank Lee Pedersen for the switches, C.
Bergbower for the coils (that work equally well on 6 or 12 volts),
Robert Alberts for the skids, and last but not least, the Shelly
and Stevens families for the detailed plans and excellent castings.
Their advice and moral support made it possible for me to have two
very nice and fine-running models. I also have an ‘OB
combination’ motor and air compressor, made by Oscar Bergstrom,
which I have had for over 40 years. I used it to paint several cars
and it served as my only source of compressed air for many
years.
Excuse the pun, but GEM really is a gem!
