Hello,
I just completed building the AMSAT Fox-1 Cardboard Model Satellite, Scale 1:1, pictures attached, it was my first attempt with cardboard modeling and I really enjoyed the effort.
Alan, WA4SCA, sent an e-mail via this board, announcing that ‘Through the dedicated work of Stefan Wagner, VE4NSA, AMSAT-NA will debut its new 1:1 scale cardboard model of the Fox-1 CubeSat at Hamvention 2013”. I asked Alan if I could send him the donation to AMSAT of $25, all proceeds will go to supporting the Fox Project, he sent the model to me and I finally put it together.
Stefan has designed an exceptionally detailed model that will be a perfect addition to any satellite operators shack, and an opportunity to show visitors what is being done by AMSAT today.
If you’re interested, you can go directly to the AMSAT store, http://store.amsat.org/catalog/ thank you for your support of AMSAT.

Thanks Pete,
The feedback is very much appreciated and I am glad you like the model. It is a great way to support Amsat and a great addition to every satellite station.
I have a list of folks that have "registered" their model with me and I can keep them updated on new developments. At this point I am almost finished with a super detailed AO-73 model again in 1:1 scale. That model will be available as a PDF file and you just print it in color on your printer.
73, Stefan VE4NSA
