MODEL EXPO

In 1987 we acquired Model Shipways (founded in 1948) and improved the kit selection by being the first to introduce laser cutting to the industry, introduced many new models and converted solid hull kits to plank-on-bulkhead and plank-on-frame. Subsequently, we designed new wood and metal models introducing Model Airways historic aircraft, Guns of History artillery and Model Trailways western vehicles... Today, we manufacture all of our kits in our factory in Miami, Florida. Here we mold detailed metal parts; cut wood with high-powered lasers and assemble each kit with careful American hands. Come visit ... watch molten metal poured and cast; hardwoods cut by lasers and see your next kit carefully assembled.
