Why We Build

Building a scale model freezes a moment in history. It preserves a time and a place and an event in a form you can hold in your hand.

It's an aid and an incentive to learn about times past in a way that is not only easy to comprehend, but also enjoyable.

It lets you not only revisit history, but rebuild it.
