“I’m still working on it and, hopefully, will fly it later this summer,” Fedorchuk continues, noting his 80-inch long model is powered by a DLE 55 cc gas engine. <\/p>\n
“We are a full time, full-line hobby shop specializing in radio-control modelling,” says owner Kerry Fingler.<\/p>\n
“We carry a full line of radio-control kits, engines, radio systems and accessories. We also carry a large selection of plastic models, model rockets, die-cast cars, free flight and control line kits, slot car sets and accessories, kites, NASCAR collectibles, and science and activity kits.”<\/p>\n
Gerry Fingler, Kerry’s father, founded the company in 1972 on the second floor of a building that housed the old Miracle Bakery on the northeast corner of Bannerman Avenue and Main Street. <\/p>\n
“We chose the name ‘Cellar Dweller’ because most of our customers spend a lot of time in their workshops which are usually in their basements, i.e. cellar dwellers,” Kerry says.<\/p>\n
“Our business philosophy today is the same as it was in 1972, simply put, to provide quality products at a fair price and back-up the product with a knowledgeable and experienced staff.”<\/p>\n
Fingler notes that he’s been around the hobby all his life.<\/p>\n
“I worked at Cellar Dweller with my dad since 1976, first part-time while attending school and then full-time after attending Red River College,” he says.<\/p>\n
Fingler says he and full-time employees Jim Holland and Bret Edel are all active model airplane hobbyists.<\/p>\n
