CORRESP 2 filename2.txt [SHAWCORE DEVELOPMENT CORP. LOGO] From: Gary Burkinshaw Chief Executive Officer Shawcore Development Corp. 329 Manchester Road Deepcar, Sheffield England, S36 2RB To Whom It May Concern: On behalf of Shawcore Development Corp. a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), we submit the following responses which correspond to the numerical comments contained in the Securities and Exchange Commission letter dated November 10, 2009 (the "SEC Letter") regarding the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the "Registration Statement"). Registration Statement on Form S-1 General 1) In response to the suggestion that the Company may qualify as a blank check company, as defined in Rule 419 of Regulation C we submit the following response: The Company is not a blank check company as defined in Rule 419. Pursuant to Rule 419, a blank check company is a development stage company that either has no specific business plan or purpose, or has indicated that its business plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company or companies, or other entity or person; and is issuing "penny stock," as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. According to SEC Release No. 33-6932, Rule 419 does not apply to a development stage company with a specific business plan, "even if operations have not commenced at the time of the offering." The bulleted items in the SEC Letter do not establish that the Company has no specific business plan, or intends to engage in a merger or acquisition. As to the first bulleted item, the SEC made it clear being a development stage company in and of itself is not dispositive. The next three bulleted items pertain to the level of operations that the Company has engaged in. As stated in Release No. 33-6932, however, it is inappropriate in the analysis of a blank check company to gauge whether the company has even commenced operations; the appropriate test therefore is whether the company has a specific business plan or purpose, or whether that purpose is to engage in a merger or acquisition with another entity. Addressing the final two bulleted items, the Company has a specific business plan. Looking to the Company's overall plan and purpose, as more fully described in the Company's amended registration statement, it is evident that the Company is in the development stage and engaged in the business designing and constructing eco-friendly self assembly housing and storage structures. Even if the test was to examine the level of operations that the Company has commenced, which it is not, the bulleted items in the SEC Letter are taken away from the context in which they appear in the registration statement. Moreover, they are isolated from the balance of the description of business and plan of operation provided in the Registration Statement that establish that active steps have been taken to further the Company's business plan. As an example, even though the Company has insufficient capital to implement the entirety of its business plan, as the staff points out, the Company has been successful in raising capital, and has $19,737 in cash as of August 31, 2009 to further its business plan. The Company's assets at the time of filing the Registration Statement included not only the $19,737 in cash and the supply agreement as stated on the SEC Letter, but also computer software was purchased on May 6, 2009 and was included in the financial statements ending August 31, 2009. Details regarding the design software purchase have been added to the disclosure in the amended filing. In addition since the filing of our Registration Statement on September 14, 2009 we have completed additional work on our corporate website, with the addition of product and billing information as well as payment services and have purchased $1,200 worth of lumber from UAB Stillmeda. The lumber was bought as a result of our first order. A shed was ordered in person and accounts receivable of $3,500 has been credited to current assets for the quarter ending November 30, 2009. The Company has not indicated that its business plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company or companies, or other entity or person. There is nothing stated in the Registration Statement to evince a present business intent to engage in a merger, consolidation or change in control. 2) In response to the suggestion that the Company meets the requirements to be defined as a shell company we submit the following response: Rule 144(i) and Rule 405 defines a shell company as a company that is an issuer that has: (1) No or nominal operations; and (2) Either: i. No or nominal assets; ii. Assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents; or iii Assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. As we are a registrant with assets including cash, computer software, a supply agreement, inventory consisting of lumber, and accounts receivable, we believe we do not fit the requirements as defined in Rule 405 and Rule 144(i).

In addition we intend to offer solar, wind and other renewable energy sources to power our products in a clean and efficient manner even in locations away from a power grid. At present we have entered into discussions with Helix Wind based in San Diego, CA, regarding incorporation of the residential wind generation products they currently produce. The following language has been added to the business description section to expand: "Our business model is to procure our raw materials (lumber, flooring, tacking, electrical, support, and roofing) from green sources. By green sources it is meant that our lumber and other wood based products will come from eco-certified forests, and recycled materials. The electrical and power generation products we will supply and incorporate into our design will be energy and waste efficient. The actual construction and design of our products will be conducted so that material waste is kept to a minimum. We intend to provide order options to include wind and solar power, as well as a variety of flooring and roofing choices so that the client can chose the specifications that best meet their needs and wants." 13) Please see revised Business Description and Plan of Operations sections for a more detailed explanation of how we plan to build and package our product: Marketing, Page 16 14) We intend for our website to be fully operational by January of 2010.
