Default Possible supply source

I get a wooden ship model kit catalog from a company called Model Expo
(www.modelexpo.com). They have a large variety of scale wood dowels, woods
strips, wood sheets, various metal tubing and rods, etc. They have a
decorative metal fittings that would work for picture frames, mirrors, etc.

They might be a good source for scale objects when your building. As I was
typing, I thought about some of their copper tubing for exposed plumbing.

They also have a large assortment of miniature tools.

I used some left-over wood strips to do the foyer in the house I built for
my little one. Looked pretty good.

I don't think you can have to many sources available when your looking for
scale items.

No, Carol it isn't you, it's Larry. LOL!!! The correct URL is:
http://www.modelexpoinc.com/
At least I think that's the one he meant...

Did you read my original post? There is plenty there, both in their tools
and supplies, that would work great for dollhouses.
