Scenery and Buildings

Just a list of manufacturers / suppliers with some comments

Jigstones

A nice way to cast building blocks and then use them to create buildings.

The product invented in England. The product was sold in 1986 to Axel Bretzler. There was an American distributor until 2004.

Then a rift occurred, the American distributor says they can still sell Jigstones molds, the European on says they are not authorized.

As far as I understand it, Train-Li is then exclusive U.S. distributor: http://www.train-li-usa.com/store/housesstructures-jigstonessup%C3%82%C2%AEsup-c-78_112.html

The copies of the original products were made by Linda Spencer, in Elbridge New York. ...

Then thwre was a supplier of those molds and some new ones they have made:

They made "G" scale models at one time, revived some of the buildings in 2012, company sold in 2016, and now nothing in G. From measuring door and windows, pretty conclusive that these are 1:24, which is very typical in buildings.
