Summary

Pathe synopsis: Making models from wood, metals and plastics can be just as exacting as mask moulding, as the craftsman at a Hounslow factory prove. It’s not the kit-enthusiast they cater for here, but business men to whom models are an aid to selling. Production models for airlines, exhibition items and even the space vehicles for TV’s "Thunderbirds" series all take shape in this miniature world.
