I was just browsing Model Expo and saw that they are carrying a brand I had never heard of  Dusek  , I was wondering if anybody had any experience with this manufacturer .   They seem to have some interesting subject matter when I checked out the website ( dusekshipkits.com)      Steve

past : Mississippi riverboat, Albatross and a few midwest kits

i never seen this manufacturer, but they are based in Czech republic, so postage to Canada will be pretty expensive, i think...

 

Pavol stands for Paul, Pablo, Paolo etc. Please do not try to pronounce it, just call me Pav...

I agree on the postage but model expo in the States is carrying them, so that would be ok

Here's a link to their home page. I have the kit of the cog and must say it's really nice. I wrote a review of the kit for Modellmarine.de. Perhaps you get an impression of what you will get, if you buy a kit.

Hi Folks

 Found this forum while looking for info and/reviews on Dusek Models.. Was on holiday in Spain recently and picked up their Golden Hind for 99 Euros @ £75.00 at then Exchange rate.,, Postage not a problem, stuck it in my case.

 

First impression is that its an excellent well thought out kit..

 

 Only one thing in it has caused me to re-think my building techniques. The hull is single planked with 3.2 mm high quality walnut.. I am currently going through options on how to plank,any tips welcome
