    Hmmm, might be interesting We'll have to see what is produced in N-SCALE and how well the product is made and performs.

    If they bring a quality product, and do so within a reasonable time, they may have good sales.

    they are looking for a Nscale Liason with Solidworks experience. It's says they need it as they don't know our market and are S scalers. Doh

    I'd cut these guys a little slack. They are exploring the market and looking at maybe doing some N scale. Why is that bad? Guys in S scale are used to having to build a lot of things themselves, like us, and the technology they are talking about lends itself to multiple scales. I think we should welcome them instead of giving them instant crap.
    But that's just me.

    Where did I say anything about it being bad? I just quoted their website that they need assistance as no one had mentioned that yet and we have people in our forum who do use Solidworks Doh =\= Bad

    Probably poor choice, but I did not have Homer in mind lol

    i wonder how solid your Solidworks skills must be to apply? Anyone contacted them yet to try and join their team?
