BUILDERS IN SCALE | |||||||||||||||||||||
|
Fine Craft Kits and More! In 1983, our founder Jim Haggard released Builders In Scale's first limited run HO scale structure kit, Weiry & Sons, and nine others since. Featuring plaster cast brick and stonework, laser-cut wood, etched brass parts, and plenty of our fantastic white metal details, we plan to release many more. Our new LaserWood kits fall into the "craftsman" range of modeling, featuring incredible details in laser-scribed planking with thousands of nailheads matching the board-by-board framing. Unique subjects combined with our white metal details and our other fine materials insure enjoyment. We also continue to expand on a full line of Evening Express Series kits which, while smaller in scope than our limited run kits, feature many of the same great components. All at reasonable prices.
Our ever expanding LaserWood product line includes a full matrix of stair stringers of all slopes and sizes, stair treads, generic wood planking for loading docks, platforms and walkways as well as siding, roofing, fencing... And yes, we do many of these in N-scale. See details below. More Than Just Kits - For the scratch builder we offer a wide range of detailing parts, building materials, construction stocks, scale figures, and general modeling supplies, serving N, HO, S and O scales, even a few for G-scale. Among our stocks of roofing and siding materials are tar paper, slate shingles and shakes, TrueWood laser-cut strip shingles, and our Victorian shingles, with real metal Ribbed Seam and Corrgation Strips, in various widths and scale. Our scratch building parts including miniature brass chain, now in five standard sizes plus one ornate, our incredible laser-cut Lace Curtains, Venitian Blinds, stair stringers in three slopes, and for scenery we have Snow!, perfect for modeling the high-country, and Kelp/Seaweed, just right for modeling shorelines, and much much more. Our HO scale detailing kits and sets include Chain Link Fence, Snow Fence and other small models, ectched brass details, and an assortment of white metal details grouped in useful sets. For O scale we have many great white metal detail parts to choose from plus two dozen scale figures and animals. For all modelers we offer SwitchMaster slow-motion and virtually silent stall-type switch machines and accessories. Our finishing products include weathering chalks, brick mortar mix, and our famous often copied SilverWood stain, now with several additional colors. You'll find all of these and more within our web site. BUILDERS IN SCALE has moved to Mukilteo, Washington! In 2002, Jim Haggard retired. Long time friend and Hydrocal kit manufacturer, C. C. Crow, stepped in and moved the business to Washington state, just north of Seattle, where he continues Builders In Scale's tradition of producing high-quality craft kits, parts, materials and supplies. The line has been expaneded in many areas, adding new sizes and new colors, nwe detail patterns, whole new branches of laser-work and exciting new kits. Always with more in the works. AT A RETAIL SHOP - NEAR YOU We work out of our family home and do not have room or the staff for a retail shop. Please visit and order on line, or visit your local retailer. If they do not carry our line urge them to do so. We would be happy to hear from them. GENUINE BUILDERS IN SCALE DETAIL PARTS! YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE
Our line includes over 500 original white metal detail parts that were created in our shop. Most were done by our founder, Jim Haggard, our figures by Ray Lantz, and now others are being created by C. C. Crow and friends. This is what makes our kits special. We actually made the original patterns. We didn't magically find them in a scrap box. We put them there! SO - WHAT'S NEW? C. C. Crow got this crazy idea about doing some narrow gauge roundhouses. Like Durango in O-scale. It's four feet by four feet! Takes a month to do just one kit. And now he's doing Ridgway in HO, and plans to do Durango in HO too. So while we are helping doing those, BIS seemingly has nothing much new. But there are many new items scattered here and there. And new kits in the works, but the focus is on roundhouses and yes they are taking forever. Meanwhile, here's the sort of new stuff. COLORADO MINING KITS
We've added several kits to the Evening Express line featuring Colorado mining. The Ore Bin and The Mine Headframe as seen at the top of this page. These go along with our existing Mine Hoist and Ore Skip kit and Double Boiler kit. We've also added a light-duty Ore Trestle. Click EVENING EXPRESS MINE KITS for more information. LASERWOOD KITS!
We have several new LaserWood kits under development. These kits feature incredible detail seldom found in laser kits. Not only have we cut the outlines of the walls but we've laser-scribed the planks and added nailhead detail, the likes you'd only find on award-winning contest models, you know the kind, where the guy spent all winter using a sewing needle to emboss the tiny nail holes just so. Well, we thought we should have that kind of detail on our new LaserWood kits. One could argue it's better than scratch-built! Add a nice handful of our white metal details- and these are outstanding. These kits include a couple of lineside wooden warehouses, an annex for them, one and two-stall wooden enginehouses, a car shop, a small wooden church, and The J & J Pyrite Mine and several more to come. Many are now available with the others to follow. We will post more detailed information as they are released. Click LASERWOOD KITS for more information.
AND MORE ARE COMING! OUR NEXT LIMITED RUN HO SCALE KIT
The National Belle Mine as our
next Limited Edition kit in HO scale. Click LIMITED EDITION KITS for more information. * Value of ore may be slightly exagerated. C. C. CROW KITS NP HOTEL, EASTON, in HO scale!
We are helping C. C. Crow with some of his kits adding laser-work and white metal details. They don't get any better than this! The Northern Pacific Hotel at Easton would make a great resting place for your busy crews. You could almost call it Builders In Scale's kit No. 11. AND WE ALSO DO O-SCALE!
We are also helping C. C. Crow with his new On3 kit of Only three and some years in the works this is an incredible model featuring brick detail inside and out, laser-cut roofs, engine doors and details. Even if you don't model Colorado narrow gauge, 1/4-inch, or whatever, you'll appreciate the insight. Do take a look-see. We are also doing Gunnison which will appear as a construction series by our fellow modeler and friend Glenn Farley. And if we are lucky we'll see this model in HO scale too. Not just part of it like some are offering, but all ten stalls with as accurate details as you can research. PLUS ALL SORTS OF STUFF So you can see we are pretty busy! We are also constantly developing, improving and adding various detail parts, scatch-building components, laser parts and so on. GO FROM HERE - LINKS Use the keys below to explore our site.
