I have soaked and pressed them before but I think I'll try using an iron. Thank you. -
Hello. I have some stubborn strips of sapelia from an old Artesania Latina kit. The strips are twisted and don't want to bend back into place. I am wondering if using an electric plank bender to fix this would work? If not, are there any other or better ways to do this?

Hello! I really really like the look of the canon! Edit: One canon not multiple.

Nice! I would like to build this one someday so I'll just follow along. Looking good!

Do you have a build log?

One more thing. Is the Harvey a real ship?

The Baltimore clipper book has a large range of prices. If I buy one for about ten dollars, is it different from the others?

Yes the bounty was my first model and I was able to get far enough to realize that the deformities on the hull would make it impossible for the model to look good. I will take a look at your kit suggestion. I think I will get the book so that I can use it for Baltimore clippers I will build. I will also take a look at these kits. Thanks for the suggestions! Also, does anybody know any good deals on an electric plank bender?

I have been a member of msw for a little while and I tried to do a solid hull kit by mamoli on the H.M.S Bounty. I never finished it because I didn't have any of the proper modeling tools and because the parts were not cut correctly. I have since then learned a little more about ship modeling and am trying to get some new tools. I am also wondering what your thoughts are on the Artesania Latina 1847 Harvey? I know it has been discontinued but it was recommended in A book I got called Ship Modeling Simplified by Frank Mastini.
