We are master craftsmen, highly skilled in the concept development, design and construction of models of all kind. We serve a wide range of industries including:

  • Museum, gallery and display models. Our portfolio includes ocean bed models showing temperature, current and fish movement, ships and replicas of historic tools, weapons and machinery.
  • Exhibition designs. Our work has included condom demonstration aids for a Swan Vesta safe sex promotion campaign and alien tentacle models for Natures World children’s information centre, Middlesborough.
  • Replica engineering components. A recent example is a working model of a set of folding fins to counter boat rolling in high seas.
  • Personal commissions. We undertake work for private individuals. You may have a favourite motorcycle, car or house. We will be pleased to replicate this on the scale you require. This may be to preserve a personal memory or as a truly individual gift of great sentimental value.
  • Tree houses. Models or full size versions in a variety of sizes and specifications.
  • Architectural models. The range includes detailed scale models of houses, flats, apartments, offices, churches, railway stations, public buildings and quayside developments.
