Customers and friends:
Last Chance to build a Classic! Ten years ago I built the first Splinter. There have been 2 improved versions. 700 have been built since 2011 and are in operation on every continent! I have less than 20 kits left and once gone the Splinter II will be retired.
If you are new here, welcome! All of my kits are complete with all parts, high quality american circuit boards and reasonable prices and personal service and support. Have Fun!
