The laser cutting service for Model Engineers by a Model Engineer at reasonable prices!

With over 8,300 different parts having already been produced for fellow Model Engineers this is the place to be to get that model done fast! Click on the gauge you are interested in and see the models I have already done parts for. Click on the model name and see the parts I have done and an indication of price. The price may vary depending on how long ago I last provided those parts. For other information use the buttons down the side.

Frames, tender kits, cabs, stretchers etc.they are all there from 0 Gauge up to 10 1/4"

For the Traction Engine enthusiast hornplates, spokes, bunkers etc.

If you cannot see the part you are looking for contact us, see how to do this by clicking the "Contact Us" button at the side. All it takes is a drawing, preferably with dimensions on!! I am not into dimensionless analysis or doing someone's design work for them. Please, if you want me to cut a part at least provide the dimensions.

If I have the parts in stock then delivery will be within a few days. If the parts are on the database already it will probably be 1-2 weeks, if you send me a CAD file it will be 3 weeks, If I have to draw them and it is complex, say a new tender body then it could be months. Please remember I am a "One man band", still trying to complete a Holmside and this is a retirement project!

I will enclose an invoice with your parts. Postage and packing will be at cost and VAT must be added for all UK and EC customers. I would appreciate a cheque by return if you are not paying by card. For those not in the UK the cheapest way is to send use a use a card.

Look at the kits I now do. These are very fast build, a 5" Stanier tender body in a weekend? It's possible! The parts are tabbed and slotted so you cannot get it wrong. Most go together with soft solder, the chassis frames and the stretchers need to be silver soldered. There are cab kits, motion brackets, bogies and lots more. For a fast and accurate build this is the way to go. Many are from works drawings or rescaled from other drawings so tend to be more accurate representations than the original drawings, not that difficult in some cases! Someone in your club may well have made one, ask around.

I shall be at the following venues:- , Harrogate 11th to 13th May, Gauge 1 North (Bakewell) 14th July, Bristol 17th to 19th August, Midlands 17th to 21st October.

PLEASE if you want to pre order anything for a show I need 2 weeks notice, not the night before!!!

I am also giving a number of talks on laser cutting to various societies around the country in addition to my articles in Engineering in Miniature and Australian Model Engineer. If your society would like a talk get in touch, I only ask for some diesel money. Talks arranged Leeds 20th September, Rugby 15th Nov.. Please note there are now 4 talks, all different. I hope to see some of you at the talks.

Many thanks.
