The Story
Gus and I met 30 years ago as we both started our clay modeling apprenticeships. Trained by both Japanese and American master modelers we worked side by side on many scale and full-size models while at Toyota. By 2002 both Gus and I joined forces again at Ford in Irvine CA. Many moons have passed. Many models are made. And so on, and so on. Such a blessed career. This site is dedicated to all clay modelers. My name is Tim.
