A note from Michael

Every piece on this site is built by hand on one bench, from a new sealed box. Sets leave here unglued unless you ask, because a set that comes apart can be moved, repaired and rebuilt. When glue does make sense, the product page says exactly which joins get it and which never do.

If a set will not fit a case, or a light kit does not exist for it, I would rather tell you before you pay than after. Email me with anything at all.
