Marble run serpent: Harro Reimers

A simple black and white, 7-part model to create a marble run. This model is ideal for beginners. You can colorize the parts as you like (see the examples to the left); it is easiest if you do it before cutting the parts. This model was first published for the modell-hobby-spiel 2008 fair in Leipzig and given away for free to many young and old fans of marble runs. As it continues to be a sought-after model we decided to offer it here for download.

Seenot-Rettungskreuzer "Bremen" (JFS 07781 - 07783)

Mit der "Bremen" sollte in den 1950er Jahren erprobt werden, inwieweit sich das geplante neue Konzept eines Rettungskreuzers mit Tochterboot umsetzen ließe, daher die Bezeichnung "Versuchsrettungskreuzer". Das Konzept bewährte sich und bildete die Basis für eine gänzlich neu konzipierte Generation von Rettungskreuzern. Der Modellbogen erschien 1957 im J. F. Schreiber Verlag, der Konstrukteur ist nicht überliefert. Eine ausführliche Baubeschreibung mit Baustufenbildern findet sich in der Ausgabe 2/2019 der Zeitschrift "ModellWerft", sie kann auf der Download-Seite auch angesehen werden. Dieses Downloadangebot erfolgt mit freundlicher Zustimmung des Aue-Verlages.
In July 2020, this model, built by Axel Huppers, was voted the 1st place by the readers of the "Modellwerft" at the model building awards. This not only honors the work of the model maker, but also the activities of AGK e.V. and Aue-Verlag, which made the download available here possible.

Lampshades

In the 2nd half of the 19th century lampshades were pretty common to reduce the brilliance of the new improved oil lamps. These shades often looked quite pretty, in particular when lit; some of them were real "magic lamps" that changed their colors and even images when backlit. Following an exhibition of historical lampshades on the modell-hobby-spiel fair in Leipzig and in the Schreiber museum in Esslingen we now offer 5 of them for download. For further information see the article about Lampshades by Dieter Nievergelt in the book "Von der zweiten in die dritte Dimension – 500 Jahre Bauen mit Karton“, Möckmühl 2015.
