The North American Model Engineering Society

The North American Model Engineering Society (NAMES) is dedicated to promoting the hobby of model engineering by sponsoring the annual North American Model Engineering Exposition.

  NAMES made the difficult decision to NOT HOLD a NAMES Exposition in 2024. We understand how disappointing this decision is for everyone. We thank you for your support!
