From David Brody: The above slide show consists of photos of our wood factory in Meizhou (pronounced May-Joe) China, which is located about 7 hours by car Northeast of Shenzhen city.

The pictures show the basic steps in the manufacturing of our 1:2 scale gas pump display. The pump manufacturing is a very labor intensive process requiring assembly/fabrication of the basic wood parts, 5 coats of paint and hand sanding between each coat. The final step adds a clear coat of polyurethane to protect the paint.

The electronics/LED lighting parts are manufactured in our Donguan facility, and shipped to Meizhou. Other parts such as the glass door/shelves and lock/key are sourced in southern China and sent to Meizhou as well. The final assembly and packaging is supervised by our Donguan facility QC team.

Please contact us if you would like to find out how you can use our gas pump displays for resale and/or marketing purposes.
