These delightful wooden kits could inspire a whole new hobby. Timberkits maintain
the magic of traditional Automata, at the same time offering intriguing fresh
design ideas. The Timberkits company evolved from a small craft enterprise based
in a cowshed in mid Wales and is now a thriving business with its own visitor
centre. The wood used in Timberkits is straight grained pine that has very few
knots and blemishes so ensuring quality and mechanical efficiency. Components
are produced semi automatically on specialist machinery developed by the Timberkits
company. Truly a gift with inspiration and creativity built in.
