Ethan's Models

Ethan's Models is a new company based in South-East Queensland, Australia, specialising in the design and manufacture of mechanism solutions for N-scale motive power. The idea is simple: use standard, off-the shelf spare parts from popular US outline N-scale locomotives, combined with custom laser-cut steel chassis and brass components, careful hand assembly and full 'bench testing' and bedding in of your completed mechanism prior to delivery. We guarantee our workmanship in assembly for a period of 12 months, and aim to offer a limited new-for-old spare parts replacement service for that time. Furthermore, the person that assembles your mechanism is but one email or telephone call away! That's what we call service.

Ethan's Models is also developing a range of Australian-outline N scale rolling-stock and locomotive kits, to be rolled out from December onwards. Furthermore, Ethan's Models provides a custom drafting service for the model railway industry, with several well-known companies engaging our services. We're happy to investigate your drafting requirements and develop a solution for you.

The 'N Mechanisms' and 'News, Jan '09' pages have been updated in full detail. Have a read and see what's coming along - hopefully we're working on something of interest to you! A few new pages have been created as well to help get the information where it ought to be - a little more work to go yet. Additional information for the rolling-stock kits will be added to the 'N Rolling Stock' page pretty soon... I promise!

Have a peruse of my 3D drawing portfolio as well -  http://ethansmodels.wordpress.com - A modest number of rendered images of some new Ethan's Models products can be seen, along with a few other contracts that have been undertaken for comrades in the Australian N-scale scene...

Ethan turns 1 on Sunday... he is inspecting some QR 'Lander' cars from Platform 9 at Roma St (QLD), and always stays behind the yellow line!
