We are manufacturers and wholesale suppliers of traditional wooden models and mechanical automata. From a hillside cowshed in Mid Wales and a small craft based enterprise, Timberkits emerged in 1993 with a few mechanical model kit designs which were entirely novel and an instant success. The business grew steadily and moved to an attractive riverside site on the main road in 1999. New designs are continuously going through the process of tooling up and we try to respond to customers particular requirements in a way that product lines based abroad are unable to do. We have a well established customer base of small independent retailers, also Hamleys of Regent Street and several educational and gift catalogues. The wood we uses is mainly a variety of straight grained pine wood that has very few knots. We also offer practical experience to school groups and courses for adults as well as a cafe and shop in very pleasant surroundings. Timberkits are both a gift and a hobby; whereas many gifts are subject to whims of fashion, the creative delight in constructing our models is something that can be passed on from one generation to the next and is a welcome alternative in the age of keypad, screen and electronic bleep.
