K RATIONS BOXES

These are sets of US Army K and KS rations boxes to use as details to embellish a 28mm model or diorama. They could also be used as objective markers in games. Each set contains precision printed artwork on self-adhesive paper and laser cut cores. Simply cut the outlines of the box on the paper, peel the backing, and apply to the laser cut wooden core.

We find it best to fold the long sides first, the ends. It’s super simple and takes less than 5 minutes to do a box.

The K Rations box is our first product like this. Other boxes and cases are in the works. So please check back.

K Rations Set of 12 ------ $6.99 per set

Alkem Scale Models

Fine scale kits for model railroaders

What is Alkem Scale Models?

Alkem Scale Models is a small kit design and manufacturing company specializing in fine scale, highly-detailed and prototypically-basedkits and detail parts for model railroaders and other hobbyists. Our kits use computer aided design and usually include photoetched brass and or laser cut wood, acrylic and bristol board parts. They are designed and engineered for ease of assembly and scale accuracy. Our metal parts are etched to aerospace-medical quality by an ISO 9001 registered firm. We also have precision casting and electronic fabricators in our network of subcontractors.

It is really a misnomer to call them craftsman kits, as most of the hard work of measuring and cutting is accurately done by the laser or etching process. Our kits do not include big piles of strip wood. Instead, almost all of our parts are cut to size, ready to be glued, sanded and finished. For example our coal dock kits use precision cut acrylic parts. All the builder has to do is glue the parts together, and in some caces, fill in seam lines.
