CHGT: 3D Printing for the Hobby and Model Enthusiasts Market Gathering Steam
HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / May 25, 2016 / Changing Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: CHGT) may be getting ready to take a ride on the railroad… a model railroad that is. The company is exploring the potential of contract 3D printing a variety of model train parts and accessories, thereby hitching its caboose to the locomotive of one of the most powerful, enduring and lucrative hobbies of all time.
“Model railroads and trains continue to be one of the most popular hobbies of all time,” said CHGT CEO Marco Valenzuela. “It’s a hobby that has attracted some very notable and influential people, such as Winston Churchill, Bruce Springsteen
and Michael Jordan. And it’s a hobby that requires frequent expenditures, which enthusiasts willingly and gladly engage in to make their collections and models unique. We want to meet with model train clubs and pitch our 3D printing services towards designing parts and accessories, as well as repair existing pieces. This could be a great market niche to ‘highball’ us (put us a fast track) to meet revenue goals.”
The National Model Railroad Association currently boasts more than 18,000 members across the U.S. and Canada. Each year, the organization hosts a national convention and several smaller shows for collectors. According to
published figures, the average model train enthusiast has an average annual income of $87,000 and has spent more than $23,000 on his or her model railroad.
