Small Projects - 1/ 100 scale Life Boat

The instructions are not the best and parts are very fragile. If I am successful, that is I can remove the lazer-cut parts without breaking anything, it should make for a delicate, neat and eligent model.

It is another of those small projects. Small projects are those that usually lack the complexity of the more multifaceted projects that require hours of work to complete.

Scratch built Cleat in 1/35

I started out making a cleat for the platform for my swamp shack, but since it is way out of scale I will use with a 1/35 scale rowboat I recently purchased. I have since done some research and I have found other styles that would have been easier to construct and will look a whole lot better than this attempt.

The 1/100 Scale Rescue Boat Has Arrived

The instructions aren't has streight forward as I would liked and it took me a few minutes studying the instructions, studying the parts sprues, and even a glance or two at the image of the completed model.

This is a tiny model and care must be taken when removing parts from the sprue and during assemble. However, it will make for a very smart looking miniature model.

My 1/35 Scale Rowboat has Arrived

Some assembly is required. There are two oars, a plank for a seat, and a buffer that will need to be put in place. The resin piece will need a little clean-up with a file and then painted and weathered.

Laser cut 1/100 Scale Lifeboat Kit

It looks like it might be a fun kit to build. I recently found a couple additional laser cut wooden kits that deserve another look.

This will be my second item listed under the new label of boat.

Although I don't have any imediate plans for this piece, it did catch my eye and I decided to purchase the piece. It will be added to my "small" projects, those that can be completd within a few hours. It also requires the new label of "boat".
