Default Semroc needs an egg lofter...

I'm getting tired of training my newbie TARC kiddos on Quest Couriers - not that these are bad kits. I would like to suggest that Semroc come up with an egg lofter - possibly a retro-repro of the 71 Egg Crate, as this did not have plastic parts and many components are already in inventory. Such a kit would teach good construction skills, and show how egg capsules can be constructed from balsa and paper tubes, rather than using pre-existing plastic ones. It could also get them familiar with clustering techniques.

What'cha think, Carl (as if you didn't have enough to do)?
