Year: 2007 Language: English Author: Campbell G.F. Genre: Manual Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 64 Description: This booklet is a guide to techniques of modelling from a wood kit. It is not a description of the construction of any certain model or type of vessel. For details of particular types, there are a number of excellent books which are described on the back page of this booklet. We start with the preparation of the simple hull, move on to the important members, furniture, painting, then, on to the rigging. Some statements herein which seem like pontifications are only efforts to be brief and precise in an immense field of facts and shadings. Shipbuilding methods and design of detail had many similarities over western Europe and America; a good idea knows no boundaries. Further, in America s early days a large proportion of American naval architects were British born and trained, all of them steeped in British practice. Longridge's "Anatomy of Nelson's Ships" is almost as valid a source of detail for CONSTITUTION modellers as for VICTORY and her type.
