Model Overview

Artitec’s Woodworkers 1920s-1990s set includes three individually posed civilian workers handling and preparing lumber. The figures depict different stages of woodworking and material handling, including one worker carrying a timber beam at his side, another carrying a long beam across his shoulder, and a kneeling worker cutting material from a stacked pile.

Each ready-made 1:87 HO-scale figure is individually hand-painted in realistic work colors with carefully rendered overalls, shirts, caps, footwear, tools, lumber, and natural working poses. The broad period represented by the set makes these figures suitable for construction sites, workshops, lumber yards, industrial areas, railway facilities, building projects, and other working scenes spanning much of the twentieth century.

Historical Context

Woodworkers and carpenters have long been essential to building construction, industrial operations, railway maintenance, furniture making, and general repair work. Throughout the twentieth century, much of the work involved manually measuring, cutting, carrying, and fitting timber using comparatively simple hand and powered tools. Although equipment and workplace safety practices changed considerably between the 1920s and 1990s, workers handling beams and preparing lumber remained a familiar sight at workshops, construction sites, lumber yards, and industrial facilities.
