Your Old-Time Hobby Shop

J-Bar Hobbies is the biggest hobby shop in the Midwest, located in a massive 6,200 square foot building at 117 E. Chicago Blvd in Tecumseh, Michigan. Founded in 1982 by Jerry and Barbara Bindus, the store has been a destination for hobbyists of all ages for over four decades.

Walking through our doors is sure to bring back that nostalgic feeling. There's a G-Gauge train that runs around the top of the store and hundreds of model airplanes suspended from the ceiling. We carry over a thousand car and truck kits, hundreds of puzzles, aircraft models in every scale, diecast vehicles, toys, model railroad supplies, games, and much more.

Whether you're a child building your first kit or a seasoned hobbyist looking for a rare find, our friendly staff is here to help. We carry something for all ages and interests — stop by Tuesday through Saturday or browse our online catalog.
