Ship Models Illustrated

About Ship Models Illustrated

This vintage book is a comprehensive guide to designing and building model historical ships, with complete instructions for marking out, shaping, planing, rigging, etc. Fantastically illustrated and utterly beginner-friendly, this handbook constitutes a must-have for everyone interested in hand making model ships, and would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf. Contents include: ¿Plans, Materials and Tools¿, ¿Shaping the Hull¿, ¿Deck Houses and Deck-Gear¿, ¿Small Boats¿, ¿Guns¿, ¿Rigging¿, ¿Masts, Spars and Yards¿, ¿The Tops¿, ¿Figure Heads and Transoms¿, ¿House Flags¿, ¿Knots¿, ¿Shop Notes¿, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on model building.
