    Hello Ship88, It's good to see someone building Dusek models as it's the first one I saw actually. I will follow your build with interest as I plan to build a trireme for my next build. Ben

    Hello Wes, I built the Virginia 1819 three year ago. The part 10 needs to be trim to fit the deck on it. Make sure that you have the right angle to match with your deck. I cut it with a sharp knife ( exacto style) and finish it with sand paper. Please also note that you have to add part 11 on page 3 to fix on it and create a curve inside of it. I use a round file to make that part I hope this help you. Ben

    Hello Johnny, First, let me thank you for this topic as I'm starting the ridding of my SF II. I also feel intimidated by the ridding as the picture in the manual are fuzzy and not very useful, It's good to know that I'm not alone in this situation .I try to check some other logs to get more informations. For the tools, I use the long tweezers like Joe have mentioned previously. Ben

    Hello Jean-Pierre and Christiano, Thanks for the clarifications. The prototype model by Chris watton is very nice but seems to be a little too big ( I see a 1meter) for the size I expect to have. I already know the model proposed by Amati and Mantua. For the moment , I will stay with the idea to order a Mantua model with maybe some modifications but I'll keep a eye on CCV's Comments. Thanks for your support. Ben

    Hello everyone, It's my first post on MSW but I follow it since 3 year. First, let me say that I really appreciate that site.It's part of my lunch routine to review topic on MSW. I was looking for a bireme/trireme for my next build and I found this manufacturer, CCV from Italia who offer four models including a Roman trireme that seems interesting to me. See the link to the website for all the models availables : http://www.ccvmodelli.it/ However, I cannot see any scale on the ship description. Does anyone have experience with this supplier ? Regards, Ben
