Fred Heim’s Fantastic Half-Scale Replicas Now on Display at Edaville USA
Edaville USA is creating a large-scale buzz this year with the unveiling of a number of Fred Heim’s working, half-scale replicas of popular construction vehicles.
Carver, MA, December 12, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Visitors to Edaville’s Christmas Festival of Lights will have an opportunity to see Heim’s extraordinary working replicas made from carved mahogany, aluminum, plastic and fiberglass. Vehicles on display include a Cat 345CL excavator and a Peterbilt pulling a 26-ft Hill dump trailer.
Heim, whose creations have been shown at machine and trade shows, toy conventions, museums, parades as well as in magazines and featured on the Boston news show “Chronicle”, is a woodworker who has been making exact replicas for 58 years. Over the years he has also built many boats and has contributed to the construction of at least 450 new homes.
“Mr. Heim’s working models are simply amazing and it is a real treat to be able to share his work with our visitors,” noted Brenda Johnson, co-owner of Edaville USA.
