Ray has won many Awards and Trophies for his beautifully crafted models. Woodworking is his passion and is continually searching for new items to create.

Ray's former years were spent working in a coal mine, with over 39 years working underground.

He spends many hours in his "SHED", machining, honing, whittling to get the exact replicas with all moving parts.

They are a credit to his patience and excellence in woodworking skills
