  8. Hi guys and ladies I'm still on the furniture stage on the deck of my amati adventure but this will be finished in a couple of weeks. I was wondering of ways to taper the masts , I've considering buying a lathe but i am looking at other ways., as the one i want is about $ 400. Has anyone got a way of tapering masts mine are about 600mm long and 8mm wide .
  9. Thanks paul , maybe i try another intermediate ship with more detail but still around that 800mm. Long Thanks again the big one might come after that as the adventure is my first ship and I've still got the rigging yet.
  10. Thanks bob. I'm looking for a bigger kit than the adventure which is 780 mm by 780 mm but with step by step instructions thanks

  12. hi guys my amati adventure is 780 mm long but it only has a rudder steer , and it's 1/ 60 scale. Do you guys think it should have a steering wheel ..thanks for any advise.
  13. I got into the website noe waiting to get response

  15. Hi , im putting a couple of extras on my amati adventure 1st ship , my ship is 1/ 60 scale so how high in mm is a say a 6 foot person
  16. Get a book called ship modelling simplified by frank mastini . It helped me heaps to the waterline mark the front of the ship then the back even if they are different heights make the marking jig and adjust the height of the ship as needed .i made mine in half hour its in the picture hope this helps.put felt on the bottom so it slides and just run the marker around the hull, the wingnut is so it's adjustable to height needed.

  18. Thanks great site now I'm even thinking of the Armageddon
